The gripping, fast-paced debut in the Max Strong thriller series.What would you do if you found a locked suitcase in the woods?Would you keep it? Would you try to open it?What would you do when someone came looking for it?Max is starting over. Fresh out of prison, he just wants to keep his head down, go to work, and maybe grab a cold beer at the end of his shift.

Bodies are turning up. Secrets are coming out. Questions are being asked.It’s not good being the new guy in a small town.
