The Abrum Files

After his sister and mother are murdered by human traffickers, Bishop Rider, a former medic and police officer, spends the remainder of his life hunting not only the men who took his family from him, but every person like them.

He is joined by many partners throughout his war. But when Jeramiah Abrum, the son of one of the men who murders Rider’s mother and sister, seeks out Rider to make amends for what his father set into motion all those years ago, a new level of retribution is born.

But one man can only stand for so long against such darkness, and though Bishop Rider’s story unfolds within the pages of A Better Kind Of Hate, The Big Machine Eats, All Of Them To Burn, Brand New Dark, and Old Man Rider, all stories end, and Bishop Rider, he’s no exception, succumbing to the cancer within him.

Which brings us to The Abrum Files and the question of what happens to those we leave behind. Jeramiah, now on his own, finds himself facing two choices; retreat from the life of murder and retribution he’s been a part of for years or pick up where he and Rider left off and using methods he’d kept in check while Rider was alive, attempt to end what he and Rider together could not.

He will finish the work.
