Summary
A curmudgeon. An iconoclast. A loner. That's how people
describe Garrison Gage, and that's when they're being
charitable. After his wife's brutal murder in New York, and
Gage himself is beaten nearly to death, the crippled private
investigator retreats three thousand miles to the quaint
coastal town of Barnacle Bluffs, Oregon. He spends the next
five years in a convalescent stupor, content to bide his time
filling out crossword puzzles and trying to forget that his
wife's death is his fault. But all that changes when he
discovers the body of a young woman washed up on the beach, and
his conscience draws him back into his old occupation –
forcing him to confront the demons of his own guilt before he
can hope to solve the girl's murder.
