Publisher's Synopsis
The community of Prosperous, Maine has always thrived when others have suffered. And at the heart of Prosperous lie the ruins of an ancient church, transported stone by stone from England centuries earlier by the founders of the town ... But the death of a homeless man and the disappearance of his daughter draw the private investigator Charlie Parker to Prosperous. Parker is a dangerous man, driven by compassion, and the desire for vengeance. In him, the town and its protectors sense a threat graver than any they have faced in their long history, and in the comfortable, sheltered inhabitants of a small Maine town, Parker will encounter his most vicious opponents yet.
