Prior Bad Acts - (A Cain/Harper Thriller) by D P Lyle (Paperback)

About the Book

Book Synopsis

Fear grips an isolated mountain town after drug dealer Dalton Southwell kills a rogue dealer and his entire family. Score settled; message delivered. But Dalton's best-laid plans go awry when his brother Dennie takes a bullet in the gut. In a panic, Dr. Buck Buckner is kidnapped from the local ER, a pharmacy is robbed and the owner murdered, and the killers melt into the rugged Tennessee hills. Buck's physician father calls in Bobby Cain and Harper McCoy to rescue his son from killers who would have little use for him after he saves Dennie; or worse, the wounded man dies. But which direction and how far did they run? What hideaway did they burrow into? For Cain and Harper it's a race against time to locate the killers, safely retrieve Buck, and settle their own score.

Review Quotes

"D. P. Lyle once again delivers a fire-cracker of a thriller that keeps you flying through action-packed pages, endeared to a couple of the best lead characters possible (ones with raw backgrounds and real heart). Atmospheric details of Tennessee make for a consuming, satisfying read."

-Shannon Kirk, International Bestselling Author

"Prior Bad Acts moves like a runaway freight train, thundering along from beginning to end and picking up speed until the very last page. D. P. Lyle's second effort to feature Bobby Cain and Harper McCoy finds his stalwart heroes on the dark side of the American Dream, as they attempt to right wrongs that turn small-town Americana into a Shakespearean tragedy. This is crime thriller of the highest order and an absolute must read."
