When Bob was an MP in Vietnam, he tried to court marshall an American marine known for raping women and children before hanging them upside down with their throats cut.

Now he is on the loose, reliving his old days, and Bob is up to put him down. The suspect leaves trails of blood and destruction in North America, and Bob is determined to hunt him down.

Bob has a strange habit of collecting business cards in places he goes, which plays a role in assuming different roles like doctor or lawyer. The roles help him have access to people and places for his investigations

One road trip later, Bob meets with Kevin pretending as his lawyer and identifies Slocum from the documents that Bob has been keeping through the years. The journey of the two follows, tracking down the killer as he leaves trails of bodies.

However, Farrell isn’t planning to go by the rules anymore, and soon the FBI have eyes on them both. Will Farell and Kearns have what it takes to bring Slocum the killer down?

Wounded Prey is a story of a psychopath ex-marine and two law enforcement officers bending the law to bring him down permanently. Retired Farell and Rookie Kevin Kearns are at the opposite sides of their careers but complement each other well.

The story is gripping and scary at times, but one shouldn’t shy away since these are some of the crimes that happen in most countries, and it’ll give you an insight into what bad guys are capable of.
