Destiny's Anvil - A Tale of Politics, Payback & Pigs (Paperback)

Will Guidry's career as a backwater lawyer is going nowhere until he has a couple of beers with up-and-coming political operative Tucker Callahan, whose family's petrochemical fortune instills in him a confidence bordering on hubris. As Tucker explains to his rudderless brother, Carter, "Guidry and I made a deal because he needed a miracle and I wanted to play God." Guidry rides Tucker's political horse sense into the office of Louisiana's Attorney General, while Tucker capitalizes on Guidry's victory to bolster his own political reputation. But what should become a powerful alliance deteriorates into a bitter feud when Guidry tries to flex his political muscle and Tucker suspects he may have maneuvered a calculating sociopath into the marble halls of power. Caught in the crossfire is Carter, the story's narrator. Devastated by betrayal at the hands of his brother and the woman he loved for a lifetime, Carter watches the power struggle between Tucker and Guidry from the sidelines. Everything changes when he stumbles on the charismatic attorney general committing a monstrous crime, and finds himself drawn into the vortex of his brother's private war. Racing from a bungled execution through ruthless political payback, before culminating in a no-holds-barred courtroom showdown, the stakes continue to rise and Carter finds his small-town naivete peeling away. Replacing it is a mounting dread of what will happen when the hammer of justice meets destiny's anvil.
