Secrets lie at the bottom of North Tenmile Lake, Oregon.
Ian Kelly rents a cottage on the water to pull him and Samantha away from the heat. Now, he's hearing rumors that his landlord, Walter Ponce, may have chained a man to the riverbed.
That's alright because Ian is sure Walter Ponce has heard some rumors too about a mysterious family involved in a gangland shootout only months ago.
Still, Oregon should have been a nice place for Ian to retire if the CIA didn't come knocking. And with them, a young assassin who botched a job in the city. Needs to lay low with Ian. Sure, if it means Ian can stay off the books for a while.
But Ian's employers aren't the only ones who followed his trail north.
Plunge into an experience brimming with three-dimensional characters, each with real-world problems (and secrets). What you get is an assassin thriller that's as much about living as it is about killing. And an adventure that's as deeply unsettling as it is utterly addictive.
