The paths of two young men collide and spark unexpected violence in a Wisconsin town where three boys went missing in the 1970s.
Gripping and immersive, this crime novel by bestselling author Tim Johnston becomes so much more: a book about friendship and love and good hard work--and a masterful read about how the most random intersection of lives can have consequences both devastating and beautiful.
