For fans of spine-chilling Cape Fear ? Yes.

An unconvicted, "politically-shielded" rapist and professional killer, blames and hunts a young woman for his only son's tragic untilmely death. Her adoptive family circles the wagons around her.

In Prosperity, Texas, charm begins at the county line, a large mint green sign reads: "Wholesome Living in a Storybook setting". A town park - resplendent with yellow, pink and red roses, a white gazebo, a stout limestone footbridge, a pond flanked by Weeping Cherry trees and nesting Mallard ducks - locks-in the message.

Yet, beneath the idyllic sugar-coated appearance, plenty of problems plague Prosperity - political corruption, an influx of illegal drugs, road rage, theft, prostituion and pornography. Sheriff Gordon has put his stamp on Prosperity - reaping huge profits in the process. His go-to-enforcer, Bruce, a cocaine-addicted, mysognistic, hit man maintains law, order and iron-fisted justice as per Gordon's aggressive agenda.

Camille, a gorgeous, lonely, young woman has caught the unwavering eye and attention of Gordon's son, Grant. Handsome, wealthy, powerful, sadisitc Grant and naive Camile become a couple in spite of Gordon's fury. Camille has also enchanted Ben, Bruce's only son, and Grant's best friend.

When Ben dies, Bruce uses his skills to stalk and murder for sweet revenge. Now, it's more than a job. It's a welcomed war. Is survival an option?

I received this book in exchange for an honest review. I liked this story and how the writer developed the characters. There was a lot going on and a lot of domino effect going on in the book. Showing how small town corruption can lead to loss of life but also be over come by the community coming together. But mostly it is about a young lady turning her life around and coming out on top! Nicely done. ( )

I was interested in this story and rooting for the main character, Camille immediately. The story was fast paced, and the characters were well developed. I would certainly recommend this to other readers, and seek out more books from this author. ( )

The title of this book is pretty accurate, because there is PLENTY, plenty action, emotions, sex, violence, corruption and plenty twists and turns. At first is a little overwhelming, because everything happen in the first chapters, but the story kept me on edge all through until the end. I don't want to give up too much information, because it's really hard to put in words the emotions that I felt reading this story.
Beware!! The author uses a raw vocabulary and some situations are extreme, this is not a book for everybody. So, are you in or are you out?

I received this book from LibraryThing for a true review.
This book could have been better. There were many things in it that were just unthinkable. First, a 13 year old child who is supposed to be competent with cross bows and guns, that is a bit scary. Also the way rape is depicted, no recovery, no emotion, as if it occurs daily with people, and they just go on with life as if it did not happen.
This could have been an interesting story if done through another angle, with some forethought. ( )
