Kieron Philips is drowning his sorrows-just when his team needs him most, just when his old school friends call for a second reunion. But he has no interest in either.
His office is gone, reduced to rubble by a demolition squad. His partner is dead. And the last time his school held a reunion, someone was murdered.
He orders another beer, adding the cap to the growing tower of lids, trying to drown out the memories. But it's not easy-not when you've served your country, not when you've lived your life alone. He missed the last reunion because he was a young soldier in Ireland. He has no intention of going to this one either.
But the past doesn't stay buried. And when trouble comes knocking again, Kieron must decide: keep running from his own ghosts, or face them head-on.
