Erik Storey’s Clyde Barr series follows a tough, self-reliant drifter who has been living off the grid in the American wilderness. In Nothing Short of Dying (2016), Clyde receives a desperate call from his sister and has to fight his way across Colorado to rescue her. A Promise to Kill (2017) puts him up against a new threat in a small mountain town.

The series has drawn comparisons to Jack Reacher for its lone-wolf protagonist who handles trouble with competence and violence. Storey’s background living in remote areas gives the books an authentic feel, and Clyde Barr is a protagonist built more on grit than glamour.
