When you hit bottom the only way to go is up! Family is the lifeline!
When Cal Rogan arrived at Kevin’s today and rang the doorbell, there was no answer… looking through the window Cal cannot see anyone, he tries again and still no answer. He turns to leave as he cannot let his daughter down; it hurts because he smells so bad. Walking away he hears Kevin. Thankful that he is there he turns and hurries inside because he is running late, and he just cannot do that. Rushing through his shower and dressing he is almost ready to leave when Kevin tells him that he needs his help. Cal looks at the time and he knows that he must leave now, or he will not get to the bus stop on time. He tells Kevin that they can talk when he comes back!
Cal has hit bottom, losing his job (which he loved), his wife (the woman he loves), and his daughter (his reason for living). The only person that had helped and stood by him since he lost everything due to his drug addiction was his best friend, Kevin. The one good thing in his life has been knowing that he could come to Kevin’s, shower, and change to nice clothes so that he can visit his daughter, Ell. Now he finds his best friend dead, the VPD ruled it a suicide, but Cal knows better. He knows that there is no way that Kevin would do this to himself. After the VPD leaves, Cal decides that he must solve this case, and he knows that he needs to get clean.
And now the story begins….

What did I like? Gee, Cal Rogan came into my life and my heart just broke! I know that life is tough, and there are people out there that once they start drugs they cannot stop unless they find the motivation to do it on their own. I read all three of these books and just wanted to be there for him. To help, to give him that drive, to keep him clean, and give back the life and loves that he truly deserves. Now on the other hand, if I did that then I would lose the most important thing, what happened to him is the reason for the books. We need for him to go through hell so that he will come back and visit us again and again!
What will you like? This is a nonstop incredible action-packed, gripping, captivating, interesting, thought-provoking, heartbreaking emotions, and ingenious plots. Those are just a few of the adjectives that apply to these books. They are all beautifully written and edited! The characters are amazing, and so unique but have the feel of the guy next door! Robert’s style using the POV is marvelous, he has done an excellent job of taking hold of you from book one and not letting go of you till the last page turns in book three. The details and descriptions are so creative that you feel the fear, and the desperate search for the answers, in addition to the bullets, and despair! Join Cal as he works to put his life back together and continues to fight the monkey on his back that never stops screaming. An excellent read for everyone! We have lots to look forward to as Robert has finished three more in this series book 4 “Three”, book 5 “Cabal”, plus Book 6 will be released on August 13th.
