On a frozen January night, a young man loops one end of a
long rope over the branch of a tree. The other end he ties
around his neck. A snowmobiler will find him 36 hours
later, his lifeless eyes staring out at the endless cold
water of Lake Superior. It happens in a lonely corner of
the Upper Peninsula, in a place they call Misery Bay, a
good 250 miles west of Paradise.
Alex McKnight does not know this young man, and he won’t
even hear about the suicide until two months later, when
the door to the Glasgow Inn opens and the last person Alex
would ever expect comes walking inside to ask for his help.
What seems like a simple quest to find a few answers will
turn into a nightmare of sudden violence and bloody
revenge, and a race against time to catch a ruthless and
methodical killer.
Alex McKnight knows all about evil, of course, having faced
down a madman who killed his partner and left a bullet next
to his heart. Mobsters, drug dealers, hitmen — he’s seen
them all and they’ve taken away almost everything he’s ever
loved. But none of that could ever prepare him for the
darkness he’s about to enter...
