Publisher's summary

After 10 years in a Texas prison for a crime he didn't commit, former Navy SEAL Billy Ray Jenkins returns home to begin a new life and meets tragedy instead - his brother's death. The sheriff declares it a drug-related incident and closes the case. But the facts just don't add up...or is Billy Ray's tragic past playing tricks with his mind? While learning what really happened to his brother, Billy Ray must resolve the internal pain tormenting his soul...pulling him back to another death a decade ago...back to the woman he loved, the sheriff's daughter.

With the help of a cocky FBI agent, a sexy redhead, and a mysterious government operative, Billy Ray discovers a psychopathic killer, and much more...a super-form of methamphetamine, called Rapture, a drug so terrible millions more could die! Billy Ray must overcome impossible odds to defeat the deadliest threat to ever face America! The clock is ticking on our doom. Will it be too late?

Pretty decent story, awesome narrator!

I listen to a TON of audio books as I’m in the car all of the time. This was fantastic! The story itself was pretty decent, but the narration was off the charts! Can’t believe that this was Shane’s first narration! Sounded like a seasoned veteran! The character transitions were very clear and believable. The cadence was spot on. He was able to emote so well that I just got sucked right in to the characters!

I’ll definitely be looking for Shane's future works!
