Short
Summary of the book:
Meet Bryan Wattson, criminal kingpin. He
thought he had it all. That is, until he is convinced by his business partner
to take part in a drug deal. One that has been orchestrated by his partner as an
act of betrayal. During the deal, he is shot and left for dead by his partner.
Following his arrest, he is given a 30-year sentence. All he wants is revenge
on his old partner.
When he is broken out of jail 10 years after
his incarceration, he is finally free to take his revenge. But, will this take
his freedom or even his life?
