Synopsis "Valley of Redemption"
"Prepare for the ride! Tucker is back!!" TD John Tucker goes to Houston to investigate the "accidental" death of a Nashville billionaire's wife. In the process, he uncovers a conspiracy involving a lethal Houston gang, dirty cops, multiple murders, Columbian hit men, an international assassin and a monstrous drug lord known only as "The Gringo," who controls gangs along the border from California to Louisiana. The closer Tucker gets to unraveling the mystery and uncovering the truth, the less he knows Tucker believes all the answers are in Mexico, and his only hope is to find "The Gringo" before his gangbangers kill him. Once there, Tucker discovers that some people are not who they say they are, and that finding the truth can take you to some of life's darkest places. Here's what readers are saying about R. O. Barton and Valley of Redemption. "Once every five years, I read a new author who redefines his genre and sets a new bar for those who follow. Enter R.O. Barton. He has restored my faith in great characters, realistic plot, fantastic insight into life, and crazy authenticity in tough guy swagger. Here's an author who has clearly lived the world he writes... who knows mortal combat and all its consequences from the inside out." C Andrews "Jack Reacher may have met his match with Tucker!" G Wallace "I am a big fan of Robert Crais, Michael Connelly, and Lee Child, to mention a few. So I am accustomed to a high level of quality of character development and pacing and details of all kinds. R.O. Barton's work is right up there with the big guys!" Dstar "Barton has that Ian Fleming eye for details from guns to fashion to food." D Elam "R.O. Barton is channeling the late great Robert B. Parker. Tucker is Spenser made over and I LOVE IT!!" AC "Barton writes a fight scene better than anyone and there is a bar fight in this book that will sent shivers up your spine." C Parks "I hope I don't have to wait as long for the next great novel!!! Thank you, this was pure entertainment at its ultimate best!!!" L Jupinka "I make a living as a firearm instructor, so naturally I relate to Tucker, and also appreciate the accuracy when it comes to the firearm detail R.O. Barton provides." F Oberg
