The Saturday before Thanksgiving, eighteen-year-old former valedictorian Evelyn Armstrong comes home from her freshman year at Virginia to her small, moneyed hometown of Bronxville, New York. By Tuesday morning, she is found in the woods of Twin Lakes with her throat cut and her body broken.
Two men go looking for whoever did it. Neither one is built to stop.
James Prince is the son of an FBI legend and a profiler of extraordinary, almost clairvoyant instinct who arrives from Manhattan with a divorce in his rearview, a young daughter he adores, and a drinking problem he pretends is managed. He is brilliant and self-destructive in equal measure, and Bronxville will test the limits of both.
Richard Armstrong is a decorated Navy SEAL and Evelyn's father, a man whose capacity for violence was once sanctioned by his country and is now answerable to nothing but grief. While Prince builds a case, Richard dismantles the town, moving through its manicured streets with the quiet, systematic lethality of a man who has already decided how this ends.
As a historic blizzard closes in and the body count climbs, these lives collide in a violent reckoning with grief, evil, and the terrible things good men become when the world takes what they love most.
The debut novel by Jack Chase. First released Memorial Day, 2025.
