β¦ Synopsis
Mt. Shasta is far from the San Francisco sidewalk on which Harlan DonnallyΒs life nearly ended in a crossfireΒ
But all too close to a decades-old secret that will force him into another.
The former detective swore heΒd never play anyoneΒs postman. But a dying friendΒs plea takes Donnally bearing a letter alive with tragedy toward a sister long deadΒthe victim of the bizarre criminality of a counterculture that had lost its way.
Stunned to learn that her killer was never prosecuted, Donnally soon finds himself in battle against a broken justice system and on a trail of evil into a dangerous borderland in which the falsely pious and the wealthy abuse the young and the poor. And though each step takes him farther down a perilous path that wrenches him between his inner demons and his mission to redeem a brotherΒs love, he wonΒt stop until he knows the truth.
For Donnally made a promise to a dead man, and heΒll keep itΒor die trying.
