Produktbeschreibung
In Defense of the Righteous is a dark allegorical thriller that pulls readers deep beneath the surface of Levy Ridge, where missing children, a haunted detective, and a veteran scarred by war descend into a City that judges everyone it ensnares. Detective Dani Francis carries the weight of a tragic shooting from her past. Jake Tinsley, a veteran of combat, knows too well the futility of wars that never leave a soldier's mind. And Rally Gillum, restless and reckless, leads the younger ones into a labyrinth that feeds on guilt, memory, and choice, reminiscent of Dante's Inferno. In the City's quarters - the Market of Balances, the Temple of Absolutes, the Quarter of Shadows, the Labyrinth of Mirrors - justice is not blind. It is merciless, shifting, and alive. The Archivist records. The Enforcers march. The Deceiver waits in the Central Court. This is a story about innocence under siege and truth on trial. Every decision is weighed. Every past act returns. And no one leaves unchanged. In Defense of the Righteous is both a psychological descent and a gripping thriller - a journey through justice, from the righteous to the damned.
Autorenporträt
Award-winning screenwriter and successful author of non-fiction and fiction. Charles writes easy-to-read books that inform, persuade, and sometimes challenge. His work ranges from civic-minded books on citizenship to bestselling guides on Mastering Strategy, Thinking, and Extreme Leadership-and yes, even gritty, character-driven mysteries. He eked out a math degree from the University of Illinois, capped by an MBA in economics from the University of Chicago. His most practical education, however, came from the school of hard work. Chuck lives in Orlando with his wife, near their daughter and her family. Their son and his crew of three boys are posted up north in a different time zone-unavoidable but unacceptable.
