Jackboot (A McConnell Novel Book 1)

Rape. Suicide. Murder.

John McConnell has known more than his share. When the system fails those he loves, he’s compelled to act. But do what? How?

It’s simple. Plan. Prepare. Execute.

Enlisting the aid of a reclusive hacker, McConnell embarks on a vigilante journey into the shadowlands of American justice, lighting them up with judicial gunfire, revealing a powerful conspiracy dominating the Homeland. The expansion of American empire has taken a dark turn—the selling out and cold-blooded murder of its citizens and soldiers. And the powers that be have taken notice of John McConnell.

Becoming a vigilante doesn’t mean McConnell can ignore his home life: the lawn needs mowing, there’s reconciling with his daughter who hates him, and avoiding Marissa Flynn, a brilliant law student hounding him about her lost sister. Inland Northwest life, brimming with family drama and old vendettas, doesn’t disappear just because you become a calculating killer and are being hunted by an elite paramilitary wet team and the FBI.

It’s complicated. You can’t shoot your way out of everything.

Jackboot is the debut novel of Will Van Allen, the first in The McConnell Novels.
