An all night convenience store in the middle of nowhere. Two women hurt and held captive by a strung out, twisted criminal. A stranger minding his own business, showing up in the wrong place at the wrong time. Ray Porter is an ordinary guy whose sheltered and peaceful world is shattered one night when he stumbles upon an armed robbery in progress. Resisting the temptation to not get involved, he instead uses gritty determination and fierce resolve to overtake the violent psychopath and rescue the two captives. Porter becomes an overnight hero of legendary proportion in the sleepy, rural town of Willow Creek and is bestowed astonishing tribute and bounty. But the intensely private Porter soon realizes that such revered status isn't for him, and a hasty retreat to simpler times becomes an eventful journey sculpted by those in his life: a protective sister, a bright but clinging teenager, a kindhearted sheriff, and a strange and puzzling victim from that fateful night. This is a novel about a true dyed in the wool hero, an unknown who puts his life in jeopardy for total strangers, and who does so without the need for recognition or glory. It is a story about how private worlds can suddenly collide with the unyielding powers of fate and circumstance, resulting in lives being altered for better or worse, or even swept away.
