After a shocking accident, Silas Tucker's legendary football career is suddenly over. Humbled, but never defeated, he returns to his backwoods hometown, Cross Rivers, North Carolina, where what's left of his family struggles to run their small farm. It's always been a violent place. His father was murdered here. Now the Southern Mafia control drugs and trafficking. His best friend in the world--Taylor McCarter Webb--is a married woman in danger of becoming a widow. As the suspense crescendos, Silas follows one rule for survival: don't ride these country roads alone, or in the dead of night.
