Bill's nephew, Gary, who he really doesn't know at all calls Bill to get him out of jail. Bill takes the boy home and before he can really find out what's going on, the boy runs away. Bill is determined to find him. Doing so, brings him back in contact with his sister whom he hasn't seen for years and his very hostile brother-in-law. He also finds himself in a small town where football is everything and the jocks run the town, no matter what. When a local girl is found dead, things get even more tense as it seems that Gary may have run away because he was involved in the murder.
I always love S.J. Rozan and this book was no exception. Bill is tense and brooding in much of this book but it does explain his family history and why he is the man he has become. Lydia is always at his side, keeping him sane and from stepping over the boundaries that will cause him to self-destruct as they figure out what Gary might be doing and what happened in their small town twenty-some years ago.
