Omschrijving
Sometimes to find yourself, you have to go back to where you came from. You just might not like what you find. . . A searing thriller about family, redemption and revenge, from the award-winning author of A Lesson in Violence.
'Beautifully written' S. A. Cosby
‘Burns bright and fast’ Peter Swanson
‘Darkly irresistible’ Megan Abbott
________________
After failing in his new life, Luke decides to go home, back to the one place where he’d once felt he belonged. But that was a long time ago and now he has to face the life that he chose to run away from: The Combine. The gang that his uncle now leads, but which his father still runs from prison. Brutal, unforgiving . . . family.
Reunited with his childhood friend Callie and tagging along on jobs with her and her boyfriend Pretty Baby, Luke soon discovers that he might have a place back home after all. When another gang try to encroach on their turf, The Combine and Luke must go to war to save all that they know.
But in trying to be someone you’re not, can you ever find out who you really are?
Family is everything and blood is love.
