You Were Never Really Here by Jonathan Ames
A terse, brutal novella follows Joe, a traumatized ex-soldier turned hired fixer who uses violence to rescue trafficked girls; as one rescue job unfolds, his panic attacks, flashbacks to childhood abuse, and self-destructive impulses surface, forcing him to confront whether violence can redeem him or only deepen the cycle of pain and isolation.
