Mercy
About
His Daughter Was Taken. He’ll Make Them Pay.
Set in the near future, Matt Deal—an ex-pat Brit married into a powerful Florida family—watches his life shatter after a nightmare unfolds. His fifteen-year-old daughter, Mercy, is left in a vegetative state following a brutal assault on a Destin beach. She was the only thing holding his fractured marriage together. Now, nothing will ever be the same.
At first, Deal trusts the police to bring the attackers to justice. But when it becomes clear the wealthy culprits might walk free, everything unravels—his gym business falters, his marriage collapses, and his ruthless father-in-law sends death threats, blaming him for the family's ruin.
With nowhere to turn, Deal is out of options—and out of patience. Should he return to post-Brexit Britain to escape the chaos, or embrace the storm and fight back?
One thing’s certain: Someone will pay.
For fans of Jack Reacher, Barry Eisler, and vigilante thriller movies like *Taken*, this pulse-pounding novel explores just how far one father will go when justice fails.
