Redemption Road

“Hart has taken it to another level…read this novel.” —David Baldacci

From the award-winning author of five New York Times bestselling novels comes a “gripping, believable story that doesn’t rest until the last sentence” (Associated Press).

A boy with a gun waits for the man who killed his mother.
A troubled detective confronts her past in the aftermath of a brutal shooting.
After thirteen years in prison, a good cop walks free while, deep in the forest, on the altar of an abandoned church, a body cools in pale linen…
This is a town on the brink.
This is Redemption Road.

“Heart-wrenching…haunting…an extraordinary novel in which the human heart proves the most confounding mystery of all.”—Providence Journal
