The Hatchery Paperback

An old man sneaks into the Rasmus Fish Hatchery, a decrepit building that's been shuttered for decades. In the musty basement lies not just his drug stash, but a treasure trove of secrets. Little does the man know that he is being watched by someone who wants him dead. On this same evening a woman is brutally beaten; are the events somehow related? Thus the plight of Walt Pitowski, a hardened man trying to outrun a funnel cloud of bad luck. The beaten woman is his former lover. That detail, along with his reputation for an explosive temper, places Walt firmly under the suspicion of the county sheriff's department. It quickly becomes Walt's mission to resurrect his damaged reputation, and win back the heart of the woman he loves. The Hatchery combines the stark beauty and tangled undercurrents of small-town Northern Michigan, with action-packed suspense that will leave the reader thirsting for more.
