When protecting your family means risking everything—including your future—how far would you go?
Decker Savage’s world is crumbling. His baby brother, Casey, has died. His parents are divorcing. Baseball—his only escape—is slipping through his fingers.
And things are about to get worse.
At a dingy café, Decker spots his mother meeting a mysterious stranger. When the man bolts and his mother looks devastated, Decker follows the stranger into the darkness. The pursuit leads to a violent confrontation, life-changing secrets, and a dangerous web of lies that threatens to destroy what remains of Decker’s family.
Now someone is stalking him, and anonymous notes demand his silence. As the threats escalate, Decker must make an impossible choice: confess to a crime he didn’t commit, or watch his family pay the price. With his baseball scholarship on the line and criminal charges looming, Decker must solve the mystery before the stalker strikes again.
Perfect for fans of psychological suspense and coming-of-age mysteries, Risky Pursuit explores the power of forgiveness, the weight of family secrets, and one teen’s courageous efforts to save everything he holds dear.
