The police believe that Tom Kingsmill killed himself by jumping off a bridge but Mike Delvan is convinced he is still alive. To solve this mystery Mike will not only have to excavate the past but examine the fears, prejudices, and secrets of the people of his hometown, Dalmore. This carefully paced, illuminating novel explores, with sensitivity and humor, the complexity of life in a small town where everyone knows everyone else and where affection and friendship stray towards separation, deception, and loss. "A tautly written contemporary novel that clearly documents Mackenzie as an especially skilled author able to craft memorable characters and embed them into a riveting story."--The Midwest Book Review September 2013 "MacKenzie's chilling debut is as much a novel of a small town struggling to retain its identity in rapidly changing times as it is a murder mystery."--Publishers Weekly Sept. 30, 2013
