Some promises are killers to keep. Private investigator D.S. Gabrieli can name a hundred places he'd rather visit than Cheakamus, British Columbia. But a promise is a promise. The trip should be a cameo: check in, attend a christening, check out. Two days, max. What can go wrong in two days? When a burned body is discovered at a sabotaged mine site near the small town, and police finger his kid brother as their prime suspect, Gabe realizes he's not getting out of Cheakamus quickly, or easily. His battle to save his recalcitrant brother's neck pits Gabe against deceptive locals, a mountain's secrets, and a cunning killer who ultimately threatens to destroy all Gabe cares about and pushes him to his breaking point. What can go wrong in two days? Everything.
