Mason is recovering from his last encounter and after getting back to looking at his messages, he is surprised by the numbers that were left by his former partner Jacquie, she needs help. That was two weeks ago and he now must drive to Arkansas. Once there and beginning to ask around about her he is met with dislike and hatred. By most, except for her family and a few others. He begins to unravel the problem and what got Jacquie in trouble in the first place. This is an action-pact story with many different characters and a storyline that will keep you entertained until the very end. Very much worth the read.

Book #7 in the Mason Sharpe series. Anyone who loves Jack Reacher will love Mason Sharpe. He has a firm grasp on right and wrong and has no problem educating those who need an attitude adjustment. In STRIKE BACK, Mason will travel to answer a call for help from his former partner. Her family has been attacked by extremists and now she is missing. The action is quick and the consequences properly applied. This book could be read as a stand alone and enjoyed but, you'd be missing 6 more great books. Pick up all 7 and plan a Mason Sharpe binge weekend then share with your reading buddies.

"Strike Back," the seventh book in the Mason Sharpe series by Logan Ryles, is an action-packed thriller that delivers on every front. Mason Sharpe's journey to a backwater town in Arkansas to rescue his former partner, Jacquie, is gripping from the first page. The small-town setting, with its undercurrent of extremism and secrecy, is brought to life vividly.

Ryles excels in creating intense, fast-paced drama filled with suspense and high-stakes action. Mason Sharpe is a compelling protagonist, deeply wounded yet driven by loyalty and justice. The plot unfolds with perfect pacing, leading to a satisfying and explosive conclusion.

A brilliant addition to a stellar series, "Strike Back" is a must-read for fans of action thrillers. Highly recommended!

5 stars!

Logan Ryles book, Strike Back, is book seven in the Mason Sharp series, and is non stop action almost from page one.

Strike Back takes place deep in the heart of the South. A place where racism and sexism are still quite prevalent in many small towns, even though most people say it is not acceptable, and Strike Back strikes out with two out of two.

Mr. Ryles does an excellent job bringing the feel of a small, no name, backwoods town to life, The unemployment, the poverty, everybody knowing everybody and everybody's business, and keeping town business town business while at the same time keeping outsiders out. As you read Strike Back, you get the feeling you're sitting right in the middle of this town that acts like it's sometime in the 1950's, yet wants you to believe it's in the modern day. It's almost like watching the Stephen Seagal movie Fire Down Below from 1994 when Mr. Seagal was still in demand.

If you like fast action, high intensity, intense drama, and no questions asked loyalty, read Strike Back, then go back and read the previous books in the Mason Sharp series because, thankfully, these books don't have to be read in any particular order to understand what is going on, though it is recommended you do read from the beginning to get the most enjoyment from the series.

This is the seventh entry in the Mason Sharpe series and it's another action-packed thriller as Sharpe goes in search of his ex-partner who's gone missing following an emergency call for back-up.

The setting is a small town, with Sharpe unwelcome from the moment he arrives. There are fewer things better than the main man being bullied out of town by an unsavoury community and this book does a great job of pitching Sharpe against plenty of bad guys up to bad things!

The pacing is, as always, fast and tense, with the plot unfolding superbly, with things escalating to a great and very satisfying ending.

Logan Ryles doesn't just do action. In Sharpe, he has crafted one of my favourite protagonists. A man deeply wounded by past events, finding himself and his purpose whilst helping those in need along the way. A vigilante with a depth of character rarely found and often packing an emotional punch.

A brilliant addition to a brilliant series.

Finally, thank you NetGalley and Inkubator Books for the ARC!

They messed with his partner. Now they have to deal with Mason Sharpe! Great book and series! I’m definitely loving this series! It’s got a bit of everything! It has high suspense, action packed, high speed chases, shoot outs, murder, mystery, even romance, and a great who done it, a few twists and turns! The storyline was very interesting and kept me glued to my kindle! I highly recommend reading this book and series! Can’t wait for more! Thank you NetGalley and the publisher for sharing this book with me!

Book seven in the series finds our protagonist, Mason, still wandering around the south, healing emotionally from the loss of his fiancé and physically from injuries suffered (in book six)., when he receives a text from his former detective partner, Jacquie. Responding to the message takes Mason to a backwoods town in Arkansas where he finds a murder of Jacquie’s uncle has taken place ( and covered up), Jacquie is missing, and a white supremacist group is running things, hiding things, and planning even more things. Mason, as usual, makes a nuisance of himself and gradually peels back the layers to reveal how deep the coverup goes.
