Lonesome Days, Savage Nights


Steve Niles - 2020
    But a terrible incident on his first beat has left him dishonored, dismayed, and barely clinging to sanity.

But when the city he always wanted to protect claims the one person who helped him survive it this far, Stu is prepared to unleash the beast he's kept inside and embark on his own road to revenge...and he gets the feeling that two graves will not be nearly enough.
