Michael Cawley has spent twenty-eight years as Daniel Mayer: a respected engineer, a husband, a father, a man with a locked house and a carefully built life. But when strange messages begin appearing at his fortress-like home, the past he buried in 1998 starts forcing its way back in.
As family, memory, and reality begin to split apart, Michael is driven toward the truth of the Deptford scrapyard-the night a boy died, a weapon vanished, and a lie became a life. Someone wants him to remember. Someone else wants him to pay.
With his marriage cracking and his mind unravelling, Michael must uncover what really happened before the house, the identity, and the life he built all come crashing down.
