The novel starts with an old man facing an assailant who uses a baseball bat to kill his dog.Then a police detective is called when the old man is reported missing by a neighbor.

And when Detective Robbin's has a chance to look inside his house it's obvious it's been tossed. Finding the dog he takes it to a vet who confirms the dog was killed by blunt force trauma.As the case continues the cracks in George Beason's family lead to a daughter who believes her dad killed her mother and the grandson who died in the service of his country may have been involved in a theft while oversees. And as Detective Robbins searches for answers he begins to look at his own life more closely and make some changes.This is a novella you can read in an hour and enjoy but the twists and turns will leave you guessing until the end and may have you asking questions of your own life.
