ABOUT
THE BOOK

Almost thirty years ago, when Frank was five, his parents burned to death in a remote Michigan town. Now Frank’s uncle is dead too, shot by a mysterious stranger who is lying in a coma in the local hospital. Frank wants answers to questions about his own past, and he believes that the stranger might be able to supply them. He leaves New Jersey and heads north, back to the town where he never belonged, to find out why his uncle dies, and why people still shrink when they hear his name.
