Michael comes home to Ellery to face his past, only his present keeps intruding in the form of his agent Alex Casey, who won’t take no for an answer.In this installment of Ellery Mountain we meet a character we have encountered before, just more grown up and successful.  Mikey is a young man who lived with his Nan when we met him before, we knew he had been attacked, beaten, stabbed and doused in petrol (gas) and left for dead (although not set alight).  Now we meet him again as a very successful male model who has again been the recipient of violence that has brought up the earlier attack.  He is off kilter and running - but he can't run far enough to get away from his agent Alex.Alex loves Michael, he is heartbroken that by trying to protect Michael he put him in harms way. He lied by failing to tell Michael of the threat he is seen as betraying Michael's trust and has lost their budding relationship and their professional contract.How can Alex fix this when Michael has told him to keep away and they are done?Meanwhile Michael is having some flashbacks and memories about the attack.  It was always assumed someone passing through attacked him in this close-knit community but he remember something that leads to a local.This is a nice wee read, nothing earth shattering and not my favourite in the series.  Michael is a bit annoying because he can't see that although Alex made a mistake, and admits it,they still love each other and there was no ill intent.  Good book for a weekend.
