NEW RELEASE....The torment builds and builds and builds….
He can't deny it.
But in what form will the pressure erupt?
Cooper Chain isn't just down on his luck -- he's almost down for the count. The mob wants a piece of him, and he sees no way out.
It's a special week for Willow Ball, a woman who's survived her own tribulations to reach this milestone in her life.
Through fate -- or a temporary misalignment of the stars -- Willow and Cooper cross paths for the first time since college. Will an unexpected spark re-ignite the flame?
A shattering discovery changes everything for Willow and Cooper. The murder is unlike any other. But what will the cops do about it?
Attacks ensure, chaos ruptures a family . . . Through it all, how can Willow and Cooper find the killer?
But it's not over. As the bodies pile up, a pattern develops and it rocks Willow and Cooper to the core.
And then someone emerges after a three-decade disappearance. Could he be connected to this string of murders?
The past might provide the breadcrumbs to end this nightmare. But Willow and Cooper may not live long enough to see it through.
Will mercy save a life or end many?

Guest book review from Carly Wilson
This is the first book I have read by John Mefford, and if I am honest, a totally new genre for me.
With this in mind, I wasn't really sure what to expect from 'Mercy'. Mefford takes the time to fully enable you as a reader to become acquainted with his characters, and it didn't take me long to become completely immersed in the story.
The book is focused around Cooper Chain, a writer who has made the mistake of borrowing a large sum of money from the wrong people, racking up a huge debt. He is desperate and attempts to form plans on how to get his hands on the money in order to free himself of such a bind.
Events bring him to reunite with Willow Ball, (Love the Ball and Chain thing going on here) someone he used to know from school, and she is not instantly receptive to him. They end up embarking on a murder mystery-solving adventure together. I grew to like them more as a team the more I progressed through the book when initially I was sceptical.
The book was full of suspense, intrigue and had me hanging on the edge of my seat wanting to know more. It was a thoroughly enjoyable read and the perfect introduction to not only a new genre and series for me but also to Mefford's work. I am eagerly awaiting a second book, as I cannot wait to learn more.

About the Author
Amazon #1 Bestselling Author, #2 bestselling author on Barnes and Noble, and a Readers' Favorite Gold Medal winner.
John W. Mefford has been writing his debut novel since he first entered the work force almost thirty years ago, although he never put words on paper until 2009. Once he started writing, however, he couldn't stop. Many readers ask John from where he gets his ideas. Well, he's a veteran of the corporate rat-race, a former journalist, and he's always been an astute observer of human and social behavior. On top of that, he's really good at embellishing.
A member of International Thriller Writers, John writes novels full of electrifying suspense -- the same types of books he has loved to read since before he could shave.
When he’s not writing, he chases his youth on bike or a basketball court, all while making mental
notes of people and societies across the land.
