This time, violence is the answer.

The paperback of A Violent Man by Scott Dunsmore, held at an angle: a hooded figure walks away through black iron gates under a red sky, with a city skyline behind him.

Nathan Archer was nobody. A quiet newlywed with a past he’d buried.

When their flight tears apart over the Pacific, Nathan is ripped from his wife and dragged into a nightmare of black-market auctions, underground fighting pits and the criminal empire of a man who trades in human lives.

Now, three years later, the man who survived has become something else entirely.

A savage, breakneck thriller about the price of survival and becoming exactly what you swore you’d never be.

A Violent Man is the debut novel by Scott Dunsmore.
