Publisher's Synopsis
Book 2 of the Charley Trilogy In a world where people broadcast their every thought, the virtue of remaining silent is often a lesson hard learned. Having always figured he'd be seen as a hero, Carl Gibson's life is not going nearly as planned - a wife that hates him, kids who ignore him and a job without consequence. So, when the police come asking questions about the murder of his infamous neighbor, Carl's desire for recognition leads him to say too much. Tina Walker, nervously new to the Homicide Department, is tasked with investigating the murder, an already difficult case made more difficult by her jaded senior partner. Brian Cox, turned upside down by worries over his past defence of Charley Ewanischuk, has joined the Crown prosecutor's office, attempting to work away the lingering sense of confused guilt. Meanwhile, against the backdrop of an ongoing murder investigation, Charley has returned to Calgary after pursuing his mother with the help of a strange mentor. Eager to rekindle any form of human contact, Charley clumsily seeks to reconnect with Brian. "I haven't read it, but someone told me it's surprisingly good." Any random friend of the author. "I got a fever and the only prescription is more Charley." The Bruce Dickinson.
