Introducing his famed series character, Lewis Cole, DEAD SAND by Brendan DuBois tells the tale of the mysterious murder of a teenage waitress at at beach resort in New Hampshire. Lewis Cole, a retired research analyst from the Department of Defense and a magazine columnist, travels down some mean streets indeed as he puzzles out not only the teenage girl's murder, but his own place in life after nearly being killed while working for the DoD.
