Prepare for a story of resilience, redemption, and a love that refuses to be extinguished, even in the darkest of times.
Three weeks after a brutal attack left Percy with gunshot wounds on his arm and face, he’s desperate to reconnect with his estranged son and rebuild his life. His Lover Starr Knitter, having narrowly survived a gunshot wound to the pelvis, clings to life from her hospital bed. Their love story has evolved slowly, like a smoldering fire, each step leading them closer to each other’s hearts.
But fate has a cruel twist in store for them. From her hospital room, Starr delivers a shocking message to Percy—a young mother, a potential client, and the mother of little Carol, has been discovered dead, her lifeless body entwined in the reeds of a local pond. The possibility of murder looms heavily in the air.
On that very night, Carol, the innocent child at the heart of the tragedy, is found, battered and terrified, hiding in a motel closet. Percy’s protective instincts kick into high gear as he rushes back to Maine from Massachusetts to comfort Starr and to do whatever it takes to shield her from the ruthless forces that threaten them both.
Though physically apart, their hearts beat as one as they make daring plans to confront the evil that lurks in the shadows. Percy ventures deep into the untamed wilderness of Dawn Land, the far eastern reaches of Maine, where danger lurks around every corner. Starr fights her own battle for survival, determined to reunite with the man she loves.
Downeast weaves a complex tapestry of murder mystery, heart-pounding thriller, passionate love story, and intense drama. Written with lyrical elegance, it takes you on a journey through the enigmatic fields, forests, and waters of far eastern Maine—a world where secrets, danger, and unexpected alliances await.
