Chasing the Dragon — Percival Constantine

Brenda McKenzie is a single mother working double-shifts as a waitress and struggling to make ends meet. But Brenda's life gets turned upside down when her teenage daughter, Alyssa, runs away with Ryan Cunningham, her heroin-dealing boyfriend. With the police providing no assistance, Brenda feels all hope is lost. Until the day a strange man offers his help. His name is Riker Stone and he has a monster lurking inside him--literally. Riker's quest will lead him to Ryan as well as the people who support him. And in his search for revenge, Riker will leave a trail of bodies. From Percival Constantine, the author of Fallen, comes a bloodspilling, ultraviolent tale of vengeance and horror in a fusion of splatterpunk and noir.
