THE FIRST NOVEL IN ACE ATKINS’ NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLING QUINN COLSON SERIES.“In Quinn Colson, bestselling author Ace Atkins has created an American hero in a time when we need him.”—C. J. Box After years of war, Army Ranger Quinn Colson returns home to the rugged, rough hill country of northeast Mississippi to find his native Tibbehah County overrun with corruption, decay, meth runners, and … corruption, decay, meth runners, and violence. His uncle, the longtime county sheriff, is dead. A suicide, he’s told, but others—like tomboy deputy Lillie Virgil—whisper murder.
In the days that follow, it’s up to Colson to discover the truth, not only about his uncle, but about his family, his friends, his town, and himself. And once it’s discovered, there’s no going back for this real hero of the Deep South.

A good read with interesting characters.
OK see you think about how you would handle this And yet you have no skill The ranger is the man
Enjoyable read
Definitely not a lee child read!
Good writer, nice way of putting together a sentence. I like stories that are straightforward, not a ton of descriptions. Much prefer terse, to the point dialogue, minimum long, paragraphs of descriptions. Robert Parker is my all time fav.
Unique and realistic. A great series!
Slow start but good once you get into it.
This is the second book of his that a read and will order another.
Not the thriller I expected.
Best since Longmire!
Great evening reader. Good for a relaxed evening in the recliner.
Nothing shockingly original but well written and entertaining.
Couldn’t put it down until finished.
I enjoyed the book and will try the next one in the series.
Hero lacked intensity, didn’t believe clues when he got em, he has to improve, liked his old time class mate so much couldn’t believe he was a crook!
The Ranger was a good read. Lots of action, lots of bad guys. Will read more by Ace Atkins.
