Collateral

When his wife and daughter are killed during a gang-related drive-by at his daughter's birthday dinner, engineer and ballistics expert Michael Holt is left shattered-and ignored by the very system meant to protect him. The police call it "collateral damage." Case closed. No suspects. No justice.

But Michael isn't wired to let things go.

Haunted by grief and driven by purpose, he turns to what he knows best: precision. He constructs a custom-built crossbow and begins hunting the men responsible. As he eliminates key members of the violent Crimson Dragons gang, he uncovers something deeper than street warfare-a network of corruption that links the city's criminal underworld to those sworn to uphold the law.

Each kill brings Michael closer to the truth-and further from the man he used to be.

Assigned to the mounting body count is Detective Elena Rossi, a sharp profiler with a growing suspicion that these killings aren't random. As she follows the pattern, she starts to understand the man behind the weapon... and the line he's willing to cross.

Collateral is a razor-sharp, emotionally charged thriller about what happens when justice dies-and one man decides to take its place. For fans of The Equalizer, Wind River, and Sicario, it's a story of precision, vengeance, and the cost of becoming the thing you hate to destroy the thing you fear.
