Redemption Point by Lawrence Parrott

From the Publisher

After moving to a small town, a young man falls for a girl with an abusive ex-boyfriend while trying to solve a friend’s murder in this compelling mystery.

When Zack Taylor gets laid off from his auto factory job in Detroit, he realizes his life is meaningless. He blames himself for his mother’s suicide following the death of his alcoholic father, and perpetuates the cycle by drinking whenever he has a problem. Yearning for a new job and a new life, Zack withdraws his savings and heads south. Then he meets Kate Jenkins.

Kate is a waitress at the local diner in Michaeltown, Kentucky. Having just broken up with her abusive boyfriend, Tommy, Kate is desperate to escape her despicable small-town life. For Zack it’s love at first sight, so he settles in the small town and takes a job at the local factory. When Zack’s mentally handicapped friend and coworker Max is attacked, he is almost positive that Tommy and his gang of thugs are the culprits. But even after Max dies, the local sheriff refuses to pursue the case. Zack follows his suspicions in search of Max’s murderer, a decision that could cost him his life.

Zack and Kate set a trap for Tommy, but when their plan goes awry, they are forced to grapple with a murderer who would rather die than go to jail. It turns out that redemption may be much harder to find than Zack thought…
