Chased into the swamp by mob enforcers, Perry survives an accident that erases his memory and his former life. When he wakes, he no longer knows his name, his past, or why anyone would want him dead. All he knows is the swamp feels safe.
Taking on the name Zook, he becomes a hermit, living off the land and cutting himself off from the world he no longer remembers. But his disappearance sets dangerous forces in motion. A corrupt professor with mob ties wants him silenced. Two relentless enforcers are sent to bring him back. A determined detective searches the swamp for answers. And Zook's parents refuse to believe their son is truly gone.
As the hunt closes in, Zook must choose between the strange peace of his new life and a past that refuses to let him go.
Zook the Swamp Hermit: Evading the Mobsters is a fast-paced thriller about identity, survival, and the cost of freedom. This is the first book in an ongoing series.
