What if you learn someone you care about is implicated in murder? What do you do? Young lawyer Buddy Smith, cousin of Maryland’s governor, does four things he never thought he would. He withholds evidence. He confesses love for the governor’s wife. He cheats on his fiancée. And he resolves to no longer care what happened to his brother, missing for nine years. While Buddy confronts his own dark side, he also unwittingly becomes the killer’s next target—until they meet on a rainy beach with a result as surprising as inevitable.

Set in Annapolis, Maryland’s waterfront capital.

Book club discussion questions included. Author available for teleconferencing.

“With its twists, turns and complex cast of characters, you won’t be able to guess where this one’s going until the final page!” Rob Ross, Juggler’s Blade

“If you like complicated plots, complex relationships, flawed heroes, and plenty of surprises, this is the mystery for you.” Mark Willen, Hawke’s Point

“As Garrison Keillor quips of Lake Wobegon, ‘the women are strong and the men good-looking.’ Here protagonist Buddy comes to grips with the strength of the women in his life.” Terra Ziporyn, Permanent Makeup, Time’s Fool, Do Not Go Gentle, and The Bliss of Solitude

“Complicated plot, strong and complex characters, astute observations and descriptions—I was engaged to the very last sentence. Annapolis setting adds color and intrigue.” Eileen Haavik McIntire, Shadow of the Rock, The 90s Club & the Hidden Staircase, The 90s Club & the Whispering Statue
