Have Mercy

by Earl Sewell

After his idyllic life is shattered, State Trooper Marshall Turner must learn how to find it in his heart to forgive the man who killed his daughter.

Marshall Turner's life is a dream come true. He is married to a woman he passionately loves and who passionately loves him back. He has a beautiful daughter who makes his heart swell with pride. But all that gets taken away in the blink of an eye when Luther Parker, a poorly educated and reckless man, kills Marshall's beloved daughter in a horrible car accident. Unwilling to face the authorities for his crime, Luther flees into hiding. But living as a fugitive is never easy, especially since the police have launched a massive manhunt to track him down.

Meanwhile, Marshall's marriage becomes increasingly strained by grief -- and his wife leaves him. His life spirals further out of control as he becomes more and more depressed. But over time, Marshall begins a hot new romance with Carmen, a worldly woman who has survived her fair share of heartache. But just when life is getting sweet, Marshall finally gets a chance to confront LutherÉand enforce his own brand of justice.

In Have Mercy, the national bestselling and award-winning author delivers it all with this riveting tale full of eroticism, romance, drama, and suspense.

Wow. If this book doesn't make you think of six degrees of separation, I don't know what will. I really enjoyed the fast pace of the story, the characters and the dialogue. I will be looking for the rest of this author's backlist.

Another book club selection. The book started out slowly for me as the author was very descriptive, almost over describing every single thing. About halfway through the book, I started to get into the book more. Overall, I found some of the plot unbelievable, but the book was a decent. I later learned that this book was recently published but that the author wrote this book over 10 years ago. I will give the author a pass and try a more recent book in the future to see if I like any further books.
