      About This Book

      JOHNNY MAYS, IMAGINE THE MORAL CONSCIENCE OF A SELFISH CHILD IN THE FRAME OF A PLAIN—CLOTHES COP. THE CITY: HIS PLAYGROUND. WE, THE CITY-DWELLERS, HIS TOYS.
      AND JOHNNY NEVER HAD A TOY HE DIDN'T BREAK.

      But now Johnny's dead, isn't her? He started something and pushed it too far. Now they're fishing for his body at the foot of a dam and Nick Frazier has been left behind.

      They'd been friends once, a long time ago. Nick had even hoped he might save Johnny. But by Johnny's reckoning, Nick had betrayed him.

      As Nick goes looking for answers, people start dying—dying in a sequence that is leading straight back to Nick Frazier. And when they haul Johnny's car—his empty car—from the lake, the truth becomes clear, Johnny Mays is back. And he's baying at the moon.
