Fiction
Set in the Pacific Northwest, a spellbinding story of
family, violence, and unintended consequences that showcases
the searing prose, soulful characters, and vivid sense of
place of an acclaimed writer in the tradition of Cormac
McCarthy, Dennis Lehane, and Elmore Leonard. Sheriff Patrick Drake tried to lead an upstanding life and
maintain some financial stability until his wife passed
away. He did okay for a while, singlehandedly raising his
family in a small mountain town. Then he was hit with money
troubles, fell in with some unsavory men, and ended up
convicted of one of the biggest crimes in local history. Twelve years later Patrick is on parole under the watchful
eye of his son Bobby, who just happens to be a deputy
sheriff in his father’s old department. Bobby hasn’t had it
easy, either. He’s carried the weight of his father’s guilt,
forsaking his own dreams, and put off the knowledge that his
own marriage could be stronger and more hopeful. Yet no
matter how much distance he’s tried to put between himself,
his father, his grandfather, and the past, small town minds
can have very long memories. But trouble isn’t done with the Drakes—and a terrifying
threat boils up from Patrick’s old life. And this time, no
one will be spared. . . .
