When a phantom stalker targets her friend, Lacey McCrae’s crime-busting skills are tested to their limits.

With her career in tatters and her marriage receding in the rear-view mirror, ex-RCMP corporal Lacey McCrae trades her uniform for a tool belt, and the Lower Mainland for the foothills west of Calgary. Amid the oil barons, hockey stars, and other high rollers who inhabit the wilderness playground is her old university roommate, Dee Phillips. Dee’s glossy life was shaken by a reckless driver; now she’s haunted by a nighttime prowler only she can hear.

As snowmelt swells the icy river, threatening the only bridge back to civilization, Lacey must make the call: assume Dee’s in danger and get her out, or decide the prowler is imaginary and stay, cut off from help if the bridge is swept away.

Released at the October meet-up of Calgary BookCrossers, held at Cravings Market Restaurant.

The story touches on pretty controversial subjects using hockey players, Sheldon Kennedy, oil barons, spousal abuse not to mention attempted murder and murder! Lacey, an ex policeman moves in with her friend Dee to solve the mystery.

With Bragg Creek and Calgary as the back drop to this story, it is neat to read about these places that we all know. It refers to the 2013 flood and why the residents are nervous when the water starts to rise!
