The Four Stragglers

by Frank L. Packard

Amidst the fog-shrouded streets of a sprawling metropolis, four strangers find themselves thrown together by a twist of fate, bound by a shared secret that could destroy them all. When a brutal murder rocks the city, Detective Liam Anderson is assigned to investigate the chilling crime. As he delves deeper into the case, he uncovers a sinister conspiracy that reaches far beyond the realm of law enforcement. With time running out, Anderson realizes that his only hope of solving the puzzle lies in unlocking the secrets held by the four enigmatic individuals who were in close proximity to the crime scene that fateful night. Each straggler carries their own burden of guilt and redemption, haunted by their pasts and desperate for a fresh start. Emily, a brilliant hacker with a dark secret; Marcus, a former military operative with a dangerous skill set; Grace, a grieving widow with a thirst for vengeance; and Jake, a reclusive artist with a tortured soul. Together, they must navigate the treacherous underworld of corruption, betrayal, and unrelenting danger, in a race against time to unravel the truth before they become the next victims. As the boundaries between right and wrong blur, and trust becomes a precious commodity, the four stragglers must confront their inner demons and confront the demons that lurk in the shadows. Will they find redemption and justice, or will they be consumed by the darkness that threatens to swallow them whole? "The Four Stragglers" is a heart-pounding thriller that will keep readers on the edge of their seats until the final page. Packard's masterful storytelling, intricate plot twists, and unforgettable characters make this a must-read for fans of gripping suspense and high-stakes intrigue.
