Guilty
From #1 New York Times bestselling author Lee Goldberg comes the final, pulse-pounding book in the bloody, action-packed JURY SERIES, the novels that launched his career in the 1980s.
Brett Macklin faces his greatest adversary yet--a ruthless, professional hit woman, seductress and master of disguise who launches a campaign of terror and bloodshed against him, pushing the vigilante to the emotional and physical breaking point, unleashing a bloody killstorm on the L.A. streets.
"Guilty is a brutal meditation on the cost of seeking justice in an ultimately unjust world. It’s easy to imagine Goldberg grinning to himself as he penned some of this stuff, wholly anticipating the shocks it would cause his readers—shocks they were looking for, of course. Heroic fiction that appeals to the sorts of blood and guts we might expect from the men’s adventure school, this time served alongside themes of guilt and consequences. It is an effective end to the series, though it leaves the door open for another book." Considering Stories Blog
"Goldberg holds nothing back in this one, that's for sure. Bodies pile up real quickly, proving Macklin is not one to screw with." --Bruce Grossman, Bookgasm
(This is the fourth book in the series and was previously released on the Kindle as .357 VIGILANTE: KILLSTORM)
