“Scout’s Honor is a dramatic narrative infused with white-knuckle moments of action. The idea of escaping one’s past is the primary theme as Eddie Kawadsky desperately strives to put as much distance between himself and a double homicide in California… John McNellis has authored a rewarding novel about friendship, love, and redemption.”
