Police Officer Jack Stratton is hiding. Hiding from the world. From pain. From the memories of losing his best friend Chandler in Iraq. Suffering from PTSD and isolated from those he cares about, the last thing Jack expects to hear is his foster sister Michelle is gone-- Chandler's sister. Although the police think she just took off, he knows Michelle would never leave those she loved behind--like he did. Now he must take action.

"Handsome police officer Jack Stratton is the 'hometown hero cop with a heart of gold.' Constant nightmares have forced him to seek answers about his rough childhood and the dark secrets hidden there. With Replacement by his side, Jack travels to Hope Falls to solve a murder that occurred before he was born"--Back cover.
