Description
What should have been a beautiful proposal of marriage for Corey Flanagan atop the Hermosa Beach Pier turns deadly when the widow of the man Corey killed shows up with a loaded gun. The “delightfully deranged” (Chicago Book Review) Cecelia Jackson chases Corey across two thousand miles in a vengeance-fueled pursuit, driving her blue Chevy Malibu with her dead husband’s urn strapped into the passenger seat. Seeking escape and refuge in his native Midwest, Corey turns to those who provided him comfort in the past—his mother, Ginny; best friend, Billy; and former lover, Nick. All of them become ensnared in Cecelia’s maniacal quest, which brings the story full circle to the family cabin in Wisconsin for a climactic and deadly conclusion.
