Harlan McFadden...

Harlan McFaddens life has been a hard walk down a rugged road. Once a lawman, he quit. He harboured no desire to be just another corrupt officer grown rich from the blizzard of drug money they dealt with each day. Pearl Grace, his wife of eight years, spent the entirety of her waking hours floating in the soft ozone haze of a drug-addled mind. The only bright spot in Harlans life was his seven-year-old daughter, Sue Ellen. During divorce proceedings, he'd fought hard for sole custody of his daughter, but lost. Pearl Grace had convinced the man in the long black robe she'd never used drugs -- not so much as an aspirin. Judge Haney read promises of pleasures in her eyes. And Sue Ellen, in an unguarded moment was savagely raped and murdered by a passing illegal alien. Soon after Harlan McFadden recovered from nearly losing his mind, he once again became a man of the law. But the laws he enforced were ones of his own making.
