"A gripping atmospheric thriller that finds the dark side of Portland, Maine. The Detective Byron mystery series is one of the finest to arrive in a long time." --#1 New York Times bestselling author Douglas Preston

When a popular high school senior is shot by police following a late night robbery, chaos ensues. The actions of the officer are immediately called into question.
