A quiet Cape Cod village is the setting for a corrupt plan to steal consultant Glen Deegan's valuable waterfront property, the little he has left after a contentious divorce.
An innocent rendezvous with an alluring, younger woman traps Glen in a nightmare with multiple murders, drug addiction, and prostitution, and Glen himself becomes the murder suspect.
That the devil is in the details comes home full force in Len Egan's premier novel. The book's success is in how cleverly it displays what it takes in the real world to solve a mystery: the examination of scores of records, a hunt through megabytes of crime scene footage, careful forensics and hours tracking suspects.
Author Egan pieces these elements together in a tight-kit mystery that's underscored by the author's rich knowledge of crime law.
Yet despite the support of his team of pros, Glen Deegan remains a suspect in jeopardy until the very end - keeping readers riveted as they turn the pages of
The Night Not at the Blue Heron Inn
