Father Billy Ray Howe was supposed to be a man of God. Instead, he was a predator—his crimes buried by the Church, his collar shielding decades of abuse. When he assaults the son of a ruthless Wall Street power broker, the system fails again. But the broker doesn’t. Fueled by rage and guilt, he tracks down a retired Navy SEAL with a reputation for surgical violence. The broker wants a hit. The SEAL declines but offers an alternative: a regimen forged in war, designed to break men and rebuild them without mercy. What begins as a belittling punishment becomes a transformation. The broker endures every brutal trial, his thirst for vengeance sharpening into something colder.
