Publisher Description

In the midst of substantial personal loss and scandal, six-foot-six Gunsten Søren Pedersen, the Detroit Tigers' worshipped, veteran fence-swinger, walked away from his career and sport that he loved. Retiring to the tranquil solitude of Minnesota's North Woods, disgraced, Gun left behind disappointed fans and searing press coverage.

But a millionaire real estate investor is out to tear up Gun's new turf. Loon Country Attractions, to be built on Gun's piece of paradise, comes replete with an amusement park, convention center, and shopping super-center—with vast environmental degradation to boot. The townsfolk are divided, and Gun is further pulled into the center of the chaos when his daughter becomes pawn in a political campaign that's turned ugly.

Gun seizes the opportunity for redemption, fighting for everything that he holds dear. Fans of Lee Child's Jack Reacher, Craig Johnson's Longmire, and Nevada Barr's Anna Pigeon, enjoy the Engers' Gun Pedersen.
