Blood and Bone

Once Kyle Byrne had promise. But he opted for a life of slack—drinking too much, playing too much Xbox, sleeping with the wrong type of women. He will, however, always attend the burial services of friends of his late father, a prominent Philadelphia lawyer. It's his only connection to the parent he barely knew, yet whose passing still casts a shadow on his heart.

But when his dad's former law partner is murdered and the cops start asking Kyle uncomfortable questions, he's forced to confront head-on the tragedies and self-deceptions that form the fabric of his existence. Suddenly, Kyle wants the real truth about his father's death—and his search is leading him to high, dark, and very dangerous places.

They say "be careful what you wish for," and Kyle should keep that in mind—because his wish is about to come true . . . with a vengeance.
