Bounty hunter Richter Cohen rarely shows mercy, but when a little girl's life is threatened, he considers mending his ways.
The year is 2051. Mankind has succeeded in destroying what is left of its natural resources, yet it endures in the face of unbridled callousness through innovation. And in the city of Zion, a cesspool of poverty, corruption, and debauchery, the poor scuttle around its foundation like ants while a chosen few reign on high. With poverty and crime rates on the rise, the powers that be form a security force to protect their assets. But in a dog-eat-dog world, Zion's security officers are devalued by bounty hunters, freelancers who, for a fraction of the cost, will carry out investigations, capturing, interrogating, and often killing their targets. While some bounty hunters abuse the system, killing as they see fit and even becoming contract killers, others prefer to avoid violence and become freelance criminal investigators.
For over a decade, lone wolf Richter Cohen has built a reputation as one of the best bounty hunters in Zion. His intellect, instinct, and judgment have earned him credibility, and, in the background, he has worked hard to overcome his checkered past and predilection for alcohol. However, his bad habits coupled with his inability to maintain professional relationships with fellow bounty hunter Bonnie Riley and no-nonsense criminal investigator Joe Prince lead him to an internal crisis. And when a young girl is threatened, Richter is faced with a decision of whether to help or let her die. Intent on doing something good for once, he resolves to turn over a new leaf. But will his self-sacrifice be enough to save her?
In Hollowpoint Bites, author Bailey Perkins exposes the depths of human depravity while highlighting the restorative power of self-sacrifice. A story of one man's redemption, the book will resonate with fans of dystopian thrillers.
