Ben Simons, personal protection agent, follows one rule in his life: never fail a client. But when his client turns up dead at the mysterious Mima Mounds in the Pacific Northwest, his career and freedom are jeopardized. Pursued as a suspect in the killing of his client, Ben chooses to run and conduct his own investigation to prove his innocence.
With limited time and resources, he reaches out for help, but who can he trust? A friendly deputy? His friend, a shooting range owner? An ex-girlfriend with connections? It’s hard to know who’s on his side. As he digs through motives and suspects, the investigation turns dangerous and his life hangs by a thread. Someone wants him out of the way and will stop at nothing to see him put in the ground. With the law closing in, he risks everything to find the real perpetrator. If he doesn’t solve the crime, he’ll either be killed or arrested. Neither option is acceptable.
