What Remains Standing

Rody Hallowes has always dreamed of becoming one of the kingdom's elite protectors-a Warrior, just like his older brother, Ridge. Determined to rise through the ranks, he's willing to do whatever it takes to prove he's more than just another rookie. But when his ambition boils over, Rody lashes out-breaking a fellow recruit's nose and his own brother's arm.

After a month of house arrest, Rody is more determined than ever to redeem himself and earn Ridge's respect. But just as he begins to rebuild his path forward, a dark shadow from his past returns. Jared Whitman, Rody's abusive former foster father, has escaped from prison-and he's coming for Rody.

Now, the fight isn't about honor or recognition. It's about survival.

"This is what remains standing."
