Frank, an Army Special Forces veteran, screwed up, went to prison, and is now out, living in small-town Wyoming and trying to go straight.

But then some old "friends" from the big house come to collect on a favor, and everything goes totally nuts, forcing Frank to go outside the law to save the one thing he cherishes most.

Bad Penny is the first in the Frank Shaw series of action thrillers which combine action, mystery, and a healthy dose of humor.
