Retribution

Colin O’Brien’s past has come back to haunt him. Free from his role as international assassin Angus McDowell, Colin takes his wife on a relaxing vacation to Las Vegas. Less than 24 hours into their trip, Colin spots a team of suicide bombers entering the hotel and casino they’re in and has no choice but to take action. He is paired up for this task with the Las Vegas Bomb Squad and must weave his way through a cavernous casino in order to stop this heinous act. Little does he know that the bombers are there for him. He is thrust back into the role of international assassin Angus McDowell. This time, though, he is the one being hunted. Not only has Colin become the face of the assassin known around the world, but now he is forced to reconcile the past indiscretions of the real McDowell. Left alone, bloody, and battered in Sin City, he is hunted by a powerful terrorist and the local branch of the FBI. He’ll have to pull off one last hit if he expects to make it out alive. Allies from federal agencies swarm the town, including the men who drew him into playing the part of McDowell. He’ll have to balance his relationships with his friends, his wife, and Las Vegas’ most powerful mob boss to stay alive and free, as well as battle the demons that begin to form inside the mind of a killer. A killer by circumstance, but still a killer.

Hunted by one of the most powerful terrorists on the planet for a job that went unfulfilled by the real assassin, Colin must once again rely on his agency friends to keep him safe. Matters become complicated for Colin as he tries to keep his wife and one of his closest friends safe while figuring out how to balance a price on his head, his newly formed relationship with Las Vegas' most powerful mob boss, and his loyalty to the Federal Agents who have had his back since day one. Loyalties and physical limits will be put to the test before Colin can even think about going home.
