Praise for FORGIVENESS DIES:

“A snapshot of humanity in perfect focus. Edgy, furiously paced, raw. From the whip-smart dialogue to the deeply flawed characters, Hensley has a voice that will stay with you long after the final exposure.” —K.J. Howe, international bestselling author of The Freedom Broker and Skyjack

“Forgiveness Dies is a non-stop, gut churning thriller that you’ll read in one sitting. Hensley has conceived a brilliant but almost fatally flawed protagonist in Trevor Galloway, a man so tormented by his past that in the battle for truth and justice he’s forced to fight enemies that are dangerously real, and some that only real to him. Forgiveness Dies is a political thriller with a rich and developed cast of heroes and villains, but don’t try and figure out who is who, you’ll need the broken but determined Trevor Galloway to do that—you’re just along for the thrilling ride. J.J. Hensley is one of the best thriller writers out there, and he sits at the top of my must-read list.” —Mark Pryor, author of the Hugo Marston series

Read this book, and you’ll want to read everything else Hensley has written.” —E.A. Aymar, author of The Unrepentant

“Is someone setting Trevor Galloway up, or is his own mind deceiving him?
