Publisher's Synopsis
In a small town somewhere near Memphis, ex-policeman, ex-con, war veteran and former therapist John Turner has come to escape his past. However, the past has proved inescapable. Thrust into the role of Deputy Sheriff, Turner finds himself at the centre of his new community, one that is drying up and disappearing before his eyes. Two years after his love Val Bjorn was shot as they sat together on the porch of his cabin, Turner is still haunted by his own ghosts, and goes in search of a truth he's not sure he can live with.
