Cancelled And Gone by John West

An action packed drama of menace, love, devotion and rage. The retirement of Simon and Paige Brodie turns out to be different from all others. What starts out as an adventure, nearly turns to tragedy. When confronted by a third-world crime rate ripping across New York City, veteran outspoken police detective Simon Brodie feels compelled to take whatever measures he deems necessary to keep career criminals off the streets. Simon believes the cause of crime is simple: we have massive crime because too many criminals are running free. There is a revolving door of crime because DAs won't prosecute career criminals; due to narcotics and open borders; illegal sanctuaries; demonization and hamstringing the police; easy bail; and soft-on-crime liberal judges…period. Brodie's detective career abruptly ends when he is suddenly called to a meeting in his boss's office. The cancel culture has caught up with him and he is given a choice: Either retire, or undergo a painful investigation by Internal Affairs on trumped up department violations. He decides to retire, and within a matter of weeks, his wife's job is also eliminated due to down-sizing. Free to do whatever they want, Simon and his wife Paige decide to make the ultimate life-changing decision: Sell their luxury condo in Manhattan, buy a large camper and retire traveling across the U.S. They make their way to a remote time-share resort community called Solace, located in the mountains of West Virginia. It comes to a climax when Paige and two other women are kidnapped. Simon will need all of his extraordinary survival and detective skills, and the assistance of a Solace Resort ally, to root out the kidnappers and their hidden location deep within the mountains of the Monongahela National Forest.
