Synopsis

Fifth-generation Texas Ranger Caitlin Strong is back, pursuing justice the Ranger way. She takes on the case of a Mexican girl on the run from white slavers. For Caitlin, the case evokes memories of her legendary grandfather's run with the Rangers, even as it brings her face-to-face with a serial killer who's left a trail of bodies along the Mexico border.

Pursuing the killer brings Caitlin to a sleepy Texas town suddenly riddled by violence and to the site of a major water find. The connection between these two disparate places lies buried beneath the plains of West Texas: a deadly weapon with the potential to give a new enemy the means to terrorize the United States.

Her grandfather's past collides violently with Caitlin's present as she fights to save her world in the same border town where he fought to save his. Caitlin will learn, just as he did, that only strong justice can save the day. But this time, outmanned and outgunned, even that may not be enough to keep Caitlin Strong—and the country itself—alive.

I liked 'Strong Justice', the second book in the Caitlin Strong series better than the first book and it's written like a full length novel. Several of the characters are from the first book, it's one where the author keeps you turning pages, got twists and turns, both fast paced, action packed and......more

Goodreads review by Jenna on July 27, 2018

I thought this one was better than the first one in this series. Probably b/c the first in a series is usually slower, setting up the characters, providing story arcs that will continue throughout the series. It still had that annoying back & forth w/various character point of views in every other c......more

This is my favorite book I have read this year. Has a mixture of so many authors. Caitlin Strong reminded me of Elmore Leonard’s Raylan, the story reminded me of Don Winslow’s Cartel series, the different settings and anti heroes reminded me of Michael Koryta, and the humor and violence reminded me......more
