<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>RCMP detective Leith fears he's made a mistake bringing his family to North Vancouver. His first Serious Crimes Unit case has rocked his senses: who would brutally murder a mother, father, and baby? Detective Dion, also regretting the move, has returned to the city where he no longer fits in -- but is he back in the swim, or destined to drown?<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b>A heartbreaking set of murders bring detectives Leith and Dion together in the Lower Mainland, where violence flows like a riptide.</b><br/><br/> Last summer the inlet waters washed an unnamed woman's body onto the rocks of North Vancouver's Neptune shipyards. When RCMP Constable Cal Dion returns home after a year's absence, he finds the case still open and grown cold.<br/><br/> While Dion works to fit back in and put closure to the Jane Doe drowning case, newly relocated Constable Dave Leith is learning to cope with his first big-city posting. But they have bigger concerns: Why would anyone beat up a young electrician, then track down his wife and baby girl to finish them off? It is a motiveless and haunting killing that leaves behind one small witness and a handful of cryptic clues. And who battered and asphyxiated a wealthy nightclub owner in his own garage? A case of home invasion, by the looks of it. But Leith has a less abstract set of suspects to deal with: the victim's business partner and his strange little clan.<br/><br/> The North Vancouver General Investigations Section is put to the test, with two files to solve, one tragic cold case, and Dion seemingly lost at sea.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>A fine and evocative writer ... well able not only to surround her two main cops with other striking characters, but to keep the novel's plot twisting with winning suspense.-- "London Free Press"<br><br>An enjoyable read.-- "Vancouver Sun"<br><br>B.C.
