Distant sons
(Book - Regular Print)

"The actions of two young working men with secrets ignite the passions and violence of a small Wisconsin town still haunted by the unsolved disappearance of three boys in the 1970s"--,Provided by publisher.

What if Sean Courtland's old Chevy truck had broken down somewhere else? What if he'd never met Denise Givens, a waitress at a local tavern in the Wisconsin town where he lands? Or Dan Young, another young man like Sean drifting through, having fled Minnesota for reasons unknown? Instead Sean and Dan pick up carpentry and plumbing work for an old man named Marion Devereaux, and Sean gets drawn into the lives of Denise and her father--- and of the townspeople, all haunted by the disappearance of three young boys decades ago, in the 1970s. Observing them all is Detective Corinne Viegas, whose drive to seek justice comes from her father's own failure to find those boys and the violence once done to her sister. An irreversible chain of events is set in motion that culminates in shattering violence, and the revelation of long-buried truths. -- adapted from jacket
