About this ebook
A teenager is arrested for his parents’ murder in a Canadian seaside village in the acclaimed series that launched the Fox TV and Hulu series Murder in a Small Town.
Vancouver's “Sunshine Coast” is famous for its beautiful vistas, but closer inspection reveals a strong dose of dysfunction among its quaint villages. Eliot Gardener is maddeningly sullen as only an angry fourteen-year-old can be. He's also, apparently, a double-murderer, having whacked both of his parents with a machete. At least it’s an open and shut case for Canadian Mountie Karl Alberg. Or is it?
Eliot may be guilty, but what drove him to commit such a grisly crime? As Alberg tries to get the troubled boy to talk, he finds himself dealing with dysfunction in his own life. His former neighbor bears him some serious ill will. And he keeps popping up wherever Alberg happens to be. Suddenly Alberg is watching a number of simmering pots . . .and the tension is only heating up.
