About this series
In a small Maine town, secrets are buried deep along the shore…
Summer. 1978.
Private investigator Jake Horn is looking forward to a weekend with his daughter, away from the busy streets of Boston. But when they head out for an early morning jog, the last thing they expect is a murder scene on Goose Rocks Beach.
Within less than twenty-four hours, the cops arrest the brother of a local restaurateur who owns a popular eatery on the Kennebunk River. But something doesn't seem quite right. And it doesn't take long for Jake to realize it's not just the low tide that smells somewhat fishy…
While the evidence against the suspect looks damning, Jake has little doubt the cops have the wrong guy.
Is it all just a setup?
Jake soon finds himself caught in the crosshairs of some powerful locals who want him out of the picture. But even when his hands are tied, it'll take more than a threat to stop him from finding the truth.
But the deeper he digs, the more dangerous it becomes...

When your ex becomes your client, the only thing more dangerous is the truth. It's 1978. With an economy on the brink, the glory days seem to be over for the failing P.I. agency Jake Horn inherited from his uncle. And he's at a point where he'll take any job he can get. Of course, there are exceptions… When his beautiful and enigmatic former fiancé walks into his South Boston office looking to prove her husband's been cheating, Jake's best option is to turn her away. He may be desperate for work. But he's no fool. When the husband's dead body turns up in a dumpster behind a local motel, the cops look to Jake's ex as the suspect. But then, she disappears... The detective on the case is determined to see someone pay for the crime. And he has a hard time believing Jake isn't somehow involved. With a target on his back and his freedom at stake, Jake has to rely on his own grit and investigative skills to find his ex and uncover the truth. It's a race against time, and Jake's life won't be the only one on the line if he can't find the real killer.
