July, 2000: A series of disturbing disappearances and a murder spoil the Fourth of July festivities in Deil River.

Too soon? 

2019: Zeke has changed names and now lives discreetly in New York, where he ghostwrites books. When the past rears its ugly head, Zeke refuses to face the music, denying any involvement and thinking about fleeing once again… Because while everyone has secrets, the one Zeke is hiding could well be absolutely devastating.
