Another fantastic David Adams book by Chad Zunker! Fast-paced, well-written, intense, suspenseful, and kept me interested from start to finish. I can not say enough good things about Runaway Justice. I really enjoyed the book and can't wait to see what happens next in the series. I would definitely recommend any book by Chad Zunker to others, you won't be disappointed!

Parker Barnes is a twelve-year-old boy who just recently ran away from his last foster home and is currently living on the streets in Austin. He has lived a rough life after both parents died at a young age and has jumped from foster home to foster home ever since. He is arrested after trying to steal a lady's purse and is currently sitting in the Juvenile Justice Center. David is called upon to help Parker out and after meeting him, David wants to do all that he can to help Parker. David ends up getting Parker a spot at Hand-Up Home with the hopes of finding a more permanent solution quickly.
What seems to be an open and shut case, quickly turns upside down. The FBI arrives at Hand-Up Home and is demanding to speak with Parker. Unknown to David, Parker was a witness to a murder of a federal witness and the FBI needs details. To make matters worse, the hitman finds out Parker's location and is threatening to kill Parker if he doesn't keep quiet. With nowhere to turn and not knowing who to trust, Parker goes on the run again. Soon the Feds, the hitman, and David are on the hunt for Parker. David teams up with a pro bono investigator and his street-savvy friends to find Parker first and save him before it's too late.
