Hanging Fields

Fiction. When a soldier's body is found entombed in concrete, the truth about his murder lies with those closest to him... Joel is home from a tour of duty in the Middle East with a brutal secret. He tries to reconnect, to start anew, but menacing calls and texts say they know what he did. Stalking cars and lurking figures threaten worse. Soon he finds himself drawn into a world of dog- fighting, military drugs and cult abuse, leaving him engulfed in a paranoid rage. Ryan, his brother, is a quiet young man who feels his life is already mapped out: no money, no job, no future. And now with Joel home and threatening to destroy the only stability he has—his girlfriend, his mother, his home—Ryan realises he must act before it's too late. For Joel and Ryan, cruelty and betrayal become their only means of survival. HANGING FIELDS is the exhilarating story of one man trying to escape his fate and one man hurtling toward his.
