Advance Reader Copy

Blurb

Everyone in the small prairie town believes it was suicide. Except Russell Quant.

Returning home to the farm, PI Russell Quant expects to help his aging mother navigate life's next chapter-not investigate murder. But when the body of a respected local man is found at the bottom of a gorge next to a suicide note, Russell uncovers clues that point to something far more sinister.

His search for the truth takes him from the Canadian prairie to Caribbean paradise, exposing secrets that threaten families, friendships and an entire community's future.

Perfect for readers who enjoy character-driven mysteries with LGBTQ+ representation and a vivid sense of place.

Come for the mystery. Stay for the heart and humor.
