A 1998 cold case is revived when undeveloped photos are discovered in a garage-sale camera. A photo of a missing man, obviously taken the night he disappeared leads Sergeant Floyd Swenson, of the Pine County Sheriff's Department, through an investigation of evasive friends, anymous letters and the missing man's dysfunctional family. Like Where Evil Hides, Hooker, and Unforgettable, Dean Hovey takes the reader on a journey to rural Pine County where small town issues abound and many skeletons are hidden in the thousands of acres of lakes and swamps.
Dean Hovey lives in central Minnesota. Like his previous 3 Pine County mysteries, and his 2 Two Harbors cozies he uses careful research, local color and history extensively.
