Cast in Stone

G. M. Ford

Heck needs you. He's in Swedish. Room 222. -Marge. The note was waiting for Leo Waterman in the grime on top of his refrigerator. Heck was Henry Sundstrom, a third-generation Seattle fisherman and a major supporting player in the movie of Leo's life. Marge had come into the picture twenty-three years ago and changed everything. She and Heck had fallen in love immediately and there was no room for anyone else in their lives. Now she needed something and she was calling Leo; it was her way. It was his way to respond. Heck was dying, struck by a truck in a bad part of town at an hour when no decent man should be there: He was trying to discover the reasons behind his son's death in a boating accident on his honeymoon. Neither Heck nor Marge had approved of Allison, and neither believe that she's dead. Marge wants closure ... and she wants a resolution to far too many inexplicable incidents, answers to questions that the police are willing to leave open. The answers are not simple and the paper trail leads Leo and his motley associates to a small town with a huge secret. From Seattle to Wisconsin, the puzzle twists and turns, tangling the present with a past so tragic that the final truth will leave the reader gasping.
