During a cross border shopping trip, a family vanishes. No reason. No ransom. No cry for help.

His anxiety is justifiably heightened when security cameras unexplainably show that he crossed the Peace Arch border alone. Now, all Wallace wants to do is get his wife and sons back. But first he has to work out why they were taken and by whom.

The trail led to a husband with a secret, a Mob connection, a hard-nosed cop who became a faithful ally...and one violent death after another...
