The Birth of a Vigilante

Brilliant, sensitive, and gifted, young Titus Booth has the world by the tail.

His adoring father runs a thriving mercantile, while his beautiful mother arranges an unorthodox and entertaining education for her beloved boy genius.

The death of his much-loved Granny Tess, a plucky Irish widow who posed as a man to fight in the Civil War, sets in motion a series of tragedies that make the young man question his very being.

After a chance meeting with a wealthy benefactor who takes an unusual liking to him, Titus sets out on a grand world adventure to find his purpose and shape his inquiring mind. Just as Titus begins to find his bearings, all goes terribly wrong.

A sickening exploitation and betrayal shake his moral compass, and the innocent young man is no more. Someone or something much more powerful and fearsome emerges to embark on a deadly path of rage and revenge in the stunning crime novel The Birth of a Vigilante.

Born in Tennessee, Russell West now resides in Birmingham, Alabama. This is his first book.
