Running On Empty

On Hillwire Street, nobody is innocent.
When a young woman is attacked in a back alley, a mystery man steps out of the shadows and leaves her attacker fighting for his life. Overnight, the gas station on the corner becomes the center of a media storm-and Carter Jaxon becomes something he never planned on being: a hero.
But heroes don't survive long in Old Cheney County.
As detectives circle, a drug empire shifts, and a violent kingpin named June starts asking questions, Carter finds himself trapped between staying anonymous and stepping into a spotlight that could get him killed.
Meanwhile, Lora-the girl he saved is falling for him... and dragging a jealous addict, a rising street dealer, and a city full of secrets right to his doorstep.
Tommy Reynolds is in a coma.
June wants his money.
The cops want the truth.
And Carter?
He's just trying not to drown in a game he never meant to play.
On Hillwire Street, power changes hands fast. And everyone is running on empty.
