Jacob's Bully

Jacob was looking forward to a carefree summer afternoon at the fair in his quiet Colorado town-until a brutal attack by bullies left him clinging to life. Abandoned by his alcoholic father and failed by the legal system, his attackers remained free, spreading their cruelty to those he loved. Desperate and alone, Jacob became the perfect target for a cold-blooded serial killer who saw in him a dark potential waiting to be shaped. Now, torn between the Christian values of his devoted Hispanic mother and his own growing thirst for revenge, Jacob faces an impossible choice in a disturbing spiral of violence and vengeance. Jacob's Bully is a gripping, psychologically charged debut novel by screenwriter David Brandt. Vividly cinematic and unyieldingly intense, this thriller weaves unexpected twists, harrowing moral dilemmas, and an unforgettable descent into darkness.
