Some secrets are better left buried…Eighteen years ago, Jenna Luckman disappeared, presumed murdered. Her boyfriend, Jake Olson, hasn’t been home since. Now he’s coming back to find her killer.Since he last set foot in Harper, Minnesota, Jake’s whole life has changed beyond recognition, but the place seems just as he left it. Small-town politics and gossip rule, and his return is big news.When a body is discovered at the frozen Hangman Falls, Jake is beset by a snowstorm of anger and revenge. Hounded by grudges and feared by the townsfolk, Jake is determined to uncover the truth behind his girlfriend’s disappearance. But he still has enemies in town and they have other plans for him.Betrayed at every turn and unsure whom to trust, Jake’s quest for the truth rekindles old rivalries and rouses ghosts that should never have been disturbed. He wants above all to find the peace of mind that has so long eluded him. But no man can escape his past.

About Keith Houghton

Keith Houghton spent too much of his childhood reading science-fiction books, mostly by flashlight and tented under the bed covers, dreaming of becoming a full-time novelist.When he was thirteen, his English teacher—who was fed up with reading his space stories—told him he would never make it as a science-fiction writer. Undeterred, he went on to pen several sci-fi novels and three comedy stage plays, in and around raising a family. But it wasn’t until he switched genres and began to write mystery thrillers that his dream finally became reality. These days, he can be found glued to a computer or spending quality time with his grandchildren.Keith Houghton is the author of the three Gabe Quinn thrillers, Killing Hope, Crossing Lines, and Taking Liberty, as well as the psychological thriller No Coming Back.To read more about Keith Houghton and his writing, please visit www.keithhoughton.com.

I really wanted to like this book, but I couldn’t. I started reading it at midnight and couldn’t put it down until I finished. It was addicting in a good way, but left me horribly disappointed. Our MC, Jake, was incarcerated for 18 years and returns to his hometown to seek revenge on the killer who......more

Love, love, loved it! The darkness of the characters, and the plot twists were amazing. I do admit, I figured out who the killer was, but never, never expected that ending. Awesome job!......more
