Rust Belt Rising

Cole Daniels spent a year risking his life on the highway with his childhood best friend Jason, clearing nearly half a million dollars. At year-end, Jason handed him only twelve thousand and claimed everything else was his. Betrayed but unbroken, Cole used every last dollar—plus help from his parents and wife—to buy his own cherry-red Kenworth. What starts as one man’s fight for fair pay grows into a powerful owner-operator co-op that challenges the corrupt brokers who have long controlled the Rust Belt roads. Family, loyalty, and hard-earned respect become his true cargo.
