Crooked Prayers

Sometimes secret exist for a reason

Ex-con, current fugitive Max Strong is a drifter. He lives in the shadows, but he's thinking about a more settled life when he receives a phone call he never expected from a woman he can barely remember: his mother. 

It's his touchstone in a life full of lies. His parents died in a car crash. That's what he was always told. The truth is a little more complicated.

Thirty years ago, a gang of four thieves walked off with over two million dollars. Then the trouble started. By the end of the night, one of them was dead, one was missing, one was in jail, and one got away. 

Now, his mother needs help. After years of hiding, someone has found her and is looking to settle the score. With no one to turn to, Max is her only option. Will he put his own freedom, and possibly his life, on the line for a woman he never really knew?

One lie can lead to a lifetime of bad blood
