Arriving home from work, Henry Jenkins sees a black van leaving his driveway on the dead-end street where he lives. He thinks little of the incident until he enters his home to be greeted by the grisly sight of his dead wife in the bedroom and his daughter dying on the bathroom floor. Neither woman survives their brutal attacks, and Henry is left alone, broken.
He spirals into a month-long drinking binge, obsessed with the black van he saw and its Q-shaped dent. Once sober, Henry quits his job as a personnel manager to devote his energy, time, and money to investigating the murders of his wife and daughter. Despite the authorities’ failure to solve this case, Henry will bring the perpetrators to justice.
But Henry’s justice might not involve the court system. Haunted by the memory of his butchered family, he must become a monster to catch the monsters. Never a perfect man, he is now a rogue hunter hell-bent on revenge. Will he find the men responsible for his heartache, and when he does, will Henry have the enraged fortitude to do what’s required?
