De: Mark Allan Johnson

Narrado por: Virtual Voice

Patrick Curran works the nightshift at Havenwood, a State facility for the intellectually challenged on the outskirts of Seattle in the newly incorporated City of Bitter Bay. He feels safe under the cover of darkness until the morning one of his residents discovers a skeleton in the crawlspace of an abandoned cottage slated for demolition. State Senator Mason Manning is running for governor, promising close Havenwood as a costly and obsolete institution. Unfortunately for him, the skeletons in his closet might include the bones discovered under Ash Hall where he worked the summer between high school graduation and college. Jillian Danvers, lawyer and legal guardian for her brother Danny, who lives at Havenwood, receives a letter from his housemate, Grady Hayward, claiming he can identify the skeleton, sending Patrick and Jillian on a perilous chase with her crisis-craving law partner, Lisa Adler. The hunt leads them to the Quileute Reservation town of La Push while being pursued by a deceitful handyman and unskilled kidnappers before teaming with Tribal Police Officer, Andrew Jackson, who harbors a great distaste for casinos, smoke shops and bodies washing up to defile his sacred beach. This unlikely company of strangers discovers a truth that refuses to remain buried.
