Two murders. One Town. And a lifetime of secrets. 'Pure reading
pleasure' Stephen King The No.1 New York Times bestselling author
of the Natchez Burning trilogy returns with an electrifying
standalone. A tale of friendship, betrayal, and shattering secrets
that threaten to destroy a small Mississippi town. Some things
should never be uncovered... When successful journalist Marshall
McEwan discovers that his father is terminally ill, he returns to
his childhood home in Bienville, Mississippi - a place he vowed to
leave behind forever. His family's newspaper is failing; and Jet
Turner, the love of his youth, has married into the family of Max
Matheson, one of the powerful patriarchs who rule the town through
the exclusive Poker Club. Bienville is on the brink of economic
salvation, in the form of a billion-dollar Chinese paper mill. But
as the deal nears completion, two murders rock the town to its
core, threatening far more than the city's economic future.
Marshall and Jet soon discover a minefield of explosive secrets
beneath the soil of Mississippi. And by the time Marshall grasps
the long-buried truth about his own history - and the woman he
loves - he would give almost anything not to face it.
