Iron House by John Hart

Two babies left to die in an icy creak. Two boys who must fight to survive. Two men, two very different lives. One unbreakable bond.





When a twelve-year-old boy murders his tormentor in their brutal orphanage, his older brother takes the blame and runs to New York – into the heart of organized crime. Two decades later, Michael returns to North Carolina with a sentence on his head, the mob in hot pursuit and his long-lost brother in trouble of a different kind. With vast sums in play, political fortunes at risk and bodies piling up, the brothers must reunite to solve the mystery of their shared past.

I knew it was going to be one hot summer when I first heard John Hart (King of Lies, Down River), was releasing a new book in July. Wow. He delivers with Iron House. This isn't a tenative, toe-stepping plotline for anyone looking for a safe and easy read. It is a powerhouse - so forceful I dare you to put it down until you finish.

What makes this book so stunning and captivating is that you think you know what is happening, you have it all solved, but then you really don't. You may start congratulating yourself for solving difficult situations only to find Hart came up with an even crazier solution!

John Hart gives us wonderful characters to follow through the story. Michael is the protagonist. At first he is a stone cold killer - but Hart molds him into something else completely throughout the novel. Michael has so many layers is like dealing with a rogue family member.

Clear your weekend, or week, and read this book. Download it on your Kindle today. Iron House is simply amazing. How far will one man go to ensure his brother's safety? And what will he find along the journey...corruption, greed, and loyalty.

After you finish you will be wanting more! Download The Last Child by John Hart. This is my favorite by this author. Oh, I am not even going to give anything away, just download it, savor it, and let me know what you think.
