PIETY AND MURDER by Thomas Drinkard
Mack Brinson, a former Green Beret is not easily intimidated. When a smarmy televangelist’s organization is legally stealing from his family he takes action.

He is first threatened, then ambushed. After surviving, one of his family is kidnapped. Fearing a clumsy rescue effort will result in her death, he mounts a raid by calling in his old Special Forces buddies. During the action, Brinson’s sweetheart, Pattie, proves to be an excellent sniper.

Nothing is ever as it seems. Revelations about past deceptions and current fraud lead to excruciating revenge.
