Ten years ago Peter Boone was a rookie Red Sox pitcher with a future. Now he's a private detective with a past, working the back roads of pastoral Vermont instead of mean city streets. But even rural retreats can harbor unexpected evil. A private eye who knows his way around Vermont's picturesque byways can always make a decent living... and sometimes make a difference.

Runaway kids are a specialty of Boone's. Some cases turn out tragic, some gratifying. And some are just puzzling. When Myrtle Brand hires Boone to find her sixteen-year-old daughter, Holly, she says all the right things about doing anything to get the girl back, but her husband and son show a strangely casual unconcern. It's an easy case, and Boone soon brings Holly back to her family. That's when things start to get even more mysterious.

Boone should be driving off into the sunset with a check and a happy ending, but it's not the last he hears of Holly Brand. When the teenager finds herself in trouble she can't run away from, Boone determines to get to the bottom of it. Soon his easy case turns complicated, a tangled mess of sex, drugs, corruption, and violence--and if Boone doesn't uncover the solution, the Green Mountain State will run red with blood....
