Synopsis: In Peter Colt&’s gritty, gripping new series set along the New England coast, a Boston-born Vietnam veteran and P.I. is hired to find a missing father—but may find far more than he bargained for . . . Boston, 1982. P.I. Andy Roark has spent the past decade trying to fit back into the world. In Vietnam, there was order and purpose. Everything—no matter how brutal—happened for a reason. Now, after brief stints in college and with the police force, it&’s enough for him to take on the occasional divorce or insurance fraud case. Roark&’s childhood friend, Danny Sullivan, dragged himself out of the Southie gutter to become a respected and powerful lawyer. Now he wants Roark to help one of his clients find her missing father. The case takes Roark to the beaches of Nantucket, where Roark&’s finely-honed senses alert him to danger just below the island&’s picturesque surface—where the biggest case of Roark&’s career may just shatter what little peace of mind he has left . . .
