Suffering from insomnia, wise-cracking tough guy Thomas O'Shea goes for a late-night stroll through the peaceful streets of Rockbluff, Iowa. Pausing downtown on the bridge spanning the Whitetail River, something catches his eye. He scrambles down to the riverbank, where he discovers the nude body of a young girl with bullet holes in the back of her head. When the coroner's report lists the cause of death as "drowning," Thomas confronts him but is met with hostility. Then, mysteriously, the coroner and his wife disappear, along with the body of the dead girl. Thomas teams up with a buddy from his Navy SEAL days and a local Ojibwa bar owner named Lunatic in order to bring justice to the girl…and they walk straight into the world of organized crime.
Autorenporträt
John Carenen is a writer with a keen eye for both serious and humorous work. His by-line columns in the Morganton (North Carolina) News-Herald and the Clinton (South Carolina) Chronicle established his reputation for self-effacing humor, with one column reprinted in Reader's Digest. Other RD credits include "Shagger!" which won a First Person Award. The National Institute of Mental Health published Son-up, Son-down, his novelized treatment of a successful group home approach, the Teaching-Family Model. He has been a key presenter at a number of Teaching-Family Model national conferences and, more recently, a panelist several times over in Killer Nashville Conferences, including a Claymore Award at the 2019 conference. He has also published pieces in The Sign, McCall's, and Dynamic Years, and his Thomas O'Shea trilogy (Signs of Struggle, A Far Gone Night, and The Face on the Other Side) drew accolades from established authors. Ron Rash, Wendy Tyson, and William Ken Kreuger, among others, have praised his work.
