Description
Nothing much happens in Versailles, Maine - until a body is found in a cabin up by the lake. The dead man is a prosecutor from Boston DA's office who had been investigating a series of gang-related murders in that city. Ben Truman, Chief of Police, heads down to Boston to follow the few fragile leads and becomes embroiled in an investigation which has its roots in a sequence of deaths that began twenty years previously. Mission Flats is the most thrilling literary crime novel in some years - combining intelligent, thoughtful and, precise prose with page-turning action.
