If masculinity is toxic, then Jack Ruger is the cultural equivalent of a raging bull on steroids. Born and raised in the cold and frozen northern paradise of Michigan's upper peninsula, Chief of Police Jack Ruger is sworn to protect and defend the citizens of Jackpine. So when escaped killer Bobby Lee Harper descends on the town, threatening to kill him and all he holds dear, it's a formal declaration of war, and only one man will survive.

I've been teaching concealed carry self-defense for over 20 years with almost 20,000 students under my belt. One weakness that my students struggle with is not knowing what to do when they are attacked. Either they haven't thought it out in advance or they don't believe that it could ever happen to them. This book solves that problem by telling 8 stories of very common self-defense scenarios. In every chapter of this book, I use my novel-writing skills to vividly create a self-defense scenario, to paint a story so clear and compelling that it entertains you. In the Tactical Analysis, I use my 20-plus years of self-defense training and experience to break it down for you and answer the questions: What did the person do right? What did they do wrong? What should you do in a similar situation? There's also a special page at the end of each chapter where you can record your own thoughts and ideas on what you should do if you're ever in that scenario. All of self defense is scenario based, and all scenarios are fluid and dynamic, changing from moment to moment. If you're going to survive in a dangerous world, then you have to know what to do and when to do it. This book arms you with that knowledge.
