The Fallen
By Ace AtkinsPublisher Description
From New York Times bestselling author Ace Atkins comes a rollicking crime novel of brazen thieves, good ole boy politicians, truck stop women—and one decent man crazy enough to fight them all...
The bank robbers wreaking havoc across the South are carrying out their heists with such skill and precision that they remind Tibbehah County Sheriff Quinn Colson of the raids he once led as an Army Ranger. In fact, their techniques are so like the ones in the Ranger Handbook that he can’t help wondering if the outlaws are former Rangers themselves.
And that’s definitely going to be a problem. If Colson stands any chance of catching them, he’s going to need the help of old allies, new enemies, and a lot of luck. The enemies, he has plenty of. It’s the allies and the luck that are in woefully short supply...

“Probably my least favorite of this series so far. It had an odd pace. However, the author manages to balance the multiple character arcs and side stories without everything becoming convoluted. He has a knack for that and I appreciate it. I’m still going to continue the series”

“It pains me to rate a Quinn Colson, let along an Ace Atkins novel a 3-star rating, but allow me to make my case.
I have been, and still am, a fan of the Colson and Tibbehah series since i first read the very first chapter of The Ranger. I was actually very excited about The Fallen. The plot seemed to go out of the beaten path of the series and The Redeemers had given Lily Virgil the place she deserved in the series, which is basically more of her.
Unfortunately, The Fallen falls into the exact same molds of its predecessors. Don't get me wrong. It is a good novel. It serves it's purpose. It's gritty and raw and funny. Pure Ace Atkins.
I just feel that there is this mold now in the series where the author just changes the names and the action. The newest books in the series are almost identical to the others although Atkins changed Safe robbers to Bank Robbers.
I will still read every Colson books Ace Atkins throw at me. It is still an enjoyable novel, but I deeply wish that the next one will take us somewhere else.”
