In this gripping police procedural, Book One of the Ferrara and Costa Crime Novel Series, the hunt is on.
A killer is using the cranberry bogs as his graveyard.Late September on Cape Cod. The harvest is underway, tourist season is on its last legs, and the bogs have turned blood-red.
When twenty-three-year-old Tommy Barlowe, a Hyannis Triangle regular with a record, rakes a body from the floating berries, Massachusetts State Police Detective Lieutenant Tony Ferrara and Sergeant Andreia Costa find a young woman in a red dress, strangled, posed like a message meant for someone specific. The costume points toward something darker than a single murder: an ideology of hatred festering in the hidden corners of the internet where resentment curdles into violence.
The clues lead Ferrara and Costa from the Triangle, where Barlowe's alibis fray at the edges, to a quiet bed and breakfast where the owner keeps watch over his guests with more than hospitality in mind. From there the trail plunges through locked doors and fringe internet forums, through digital underbrush where the depraved recruit and radicalize and plan.
The killer knows the harvest. He knows the terrain. He has turned the land itself into his accomplice. For Ferrara, haunted by violence in his own past, and Costa, whose sharp instincts cut through every lie, the chase becomes personal and relentless. It will run from the last crowded days of summer to the empty bogs of early autumn, from stolen secrets to a finish so wild it will leave readers breathless.
