A novel by

 
 
Gabriel Karne is cautiously optimistic. Life seems to be settling down, but in the past this has meant something unpleasant is about to hit the fan.

It’s a new year. The former con artist has a permanent-for-now address, even Keith-the-cat seems to like it there. No more rickety sailboats and living out of go-bags for Gabriel Karne. No surprises. No dead bodies.

Romance-wise, he and Ranger Man are easing into being a couple. A lifetime of habits is hard to break—for both of them.

Gabe has a job. Will he regret agreeing to it? The eight ball says, maybe.


Another damn letter--this time from a stranger--shows up, the author claims they have some of his late mother’s belongings. Great.

Additionally, a strange young woman appears on his new doorstep. She claims to be his long-lost daughter, and has completely sketchy documentation to prove it. It’s not impossible, and yet… '''Gabe wasn’t born yesterday, and Heidi Karne was his mother, after all.

The next time Gabe sees the young woman, she’s dead.

It will be fine. Everything will be fine.
