Aggrieved
Ex-NYPD homicide detective, Joe Logan, now a drifter by choice, returns to the town of Carson Creek in Colorado, having arranged to meet up with Kate Donner, the lawyer that he had been in a close relationship with several years previously.
Deputies of the town’s sheriff’s department are demanding what amounts to be no less than protection money from many of the small business owners, in the guise of bogus undocumented tax increases. One of the storekeepers has approached Kate and given her details of the unlawful scam, that is being operated by those that are supposed to protect and serve the community, not to intimidate and profit by it.
Logan becomes involved, only to be surprised when an unknown perpetrator takes the law into his or her own hands and guns down one of the crooked deputies.
The town is being run by a corrupt mayor, and more deputies on a vigilante’s list are murdered as the state police and also detectives from Denver investigate the case.
Logan obtains incriminating information, which he substantiates as he carries out inquiries that attract the attention of more than one party, who decide he needs to be taken out of the picture, permanently.

About the author
Michael Kerr
89 books38 followersI write the type of original, action-packed, violent crime thrillers that I know I would enjoy reading if they were written by such authors as: Lee Child, David Baldacci, Harlan Coben, Michael Connelly and their ilk.
Over twenty years in the Prison Service proved great research into the minds of criminals, and especially into the dark world that serial killers - of who I have met quite a few - frequent.
I live in a cottage a mile from the nearest main road in the Yorkshire Wolds, enjoy photography, the wildlife, and of course creating new characters to place in dilemmas that my mind dreams up.
What makes a good read? Believable protagonists that you care about, set in a story that stirs all of your emotions.
If you like crime fiction, then I believe that 'Deadly Reprisal' and 'A Reacher Kind of Guy - Aftermath' will push all the right buttons for you.

More of the same
Which is not a bad thing. Like Reacher, Logan wins every fight. No real mysteries to solve, just violent retribution to the bad guys, then moving on. An enjoyable fast read nonetheless, and I will probably keep on with the series.
