From prolific best-selling authors Susan Easton Black and George Durrant comes this gripping historical mystery. Stories that defined small American towns have been crushed by the weight of snippets of national news. But there is one story that has refused to succumb to big-city life. It is a story of mystery, romance, and insanity. The setting is the 1920s in Rooster Creek, Utah. The star is an unlikely, frightening man named Wesley Birch. No matter how the story of Wesley is told, it always begins the same way: in a hotel lobby.
