Trackdown: U.S. Marshal Charlie Harlow
When justice fails, Charlie Harlow's not afraid to take the law into his own hands…
Deputy U.S. Marshal Charlie Harlow refuses to stand by and watch when someone’s in trouble. So when a teen he tried to help suddenly goes missing, he has a hard time stepping aside to let the local authorities do their job.
And when he senses the case isn’t being taken as seriously as it should, he decides to take matters into his own hands and bring the girl back to safety.
But everything changes when the sheriff's office finds a body that matches the girl’s description. Charlie takes the blame for what happened, and makes a promise to make those responsible pay the price.
He won’t stop until they do.
He tracks down every lead. He follows every clue. And by the time the local authorities officially turn to the U.S. Marshals Service for help, Charlie’s already two steps ahead of everyone involved.
But this time, his reluctance to follow orders might be just what brings him down. When the search takes a turn in the wrong direction, Charlie knows he has to change course, or it’ll be more than his own life he’s put at risk.

Charlie Harlow is Charlie Harlow and he gets away with it because they need his skills. Who knows, maybe some of him will rub pff on the sheriff. Charlie hears two scumbags in a bar lewdly talking about a girl that has been sleeping by the fountain at the mall.. He figures he should go talk to her, which he does, but then she disappears. You know Charlie, he isn't going to let that go uninvestigated, even though it isn't in his job description. It turns out to be a whole lot more than just a missing girl.

shoot first, ask questions later
A fun read with Charlie being quick to act, slow to think, but determined to win. Not good with authority or people’s feeling. Probably a loveable rogue.
