Hawke's Prey by Reavis Z. Wortham

5.0

A terrorist squad takes over the courthouse in the tiny west Texas town of Ballard, in the middle of the worst blizzard in 100 years. Texas Ranger Sonny Hawke happens to be inside the courthouse, with his school teacher wife, Kelly and her class of high school students, including their twin children. The terrorists are an odd bunch, comprised of jihadists, Mexican cartel members and American alt-right militia members. The man in charge put them together in that manner to confound the authorities. The mastermind had a goal, but the guy on the ground in Ballard had a whole other agenda. However, Sonny Hawke had a very different plan of action. Non-stop action and some of the best place setting writing you will ever read. One riot, one Ranger is their motto, and Reavis Z. Wortham shows us that truth.
