The Upright Man — Michael Marshall

Ward Hopkins is afraid.

He's seen something dreadful in the high plains of the Columbia River.
It's sent him fleeing cross--country, forever running.

In his wake, one by one, people are dying...the lonely night manager of a Seattle hotel, an unsuspecting restaurant owner in Portland. No one can see the connection. Except for Ward.

He has a secret. It's in his past and in the mystery of the Upright Man, a Serial killer whose horrifying agenda only one special soul understands. No wonder Ward Hopkins is afraid.

He knows what's going to happen next.
