A quiet afternoon. A deadly hit-and-run. And a case that reaches far beyond Newfoundland’s shores.
RCMP officer Winston Windflower is looking forward to a rare afternoon off in Grand Bank. But when a routine hit-and-run quickly turns into a murder investigation, Windflower finds himself pulled into something far more dangerous than anyone expected.
What begins as a local tragedy soon reveals a trail of fentanyl, money, and bodies stretching across provincial lines. Windflower assembles a team of Mounties from Newfoundland and Labrador and joins forces with police in southern Ontario to dismantle an international drug-smuggling ring operating in the shadows.
But the case turns deeply personal when fellow Mountie Fil Romano is kidnapped. As negotiations unfold and higher-ups at HQ consider granting safe passage to powerful drug lords in exchange for Romano’s life, Windflower faces one of the most difficult moments of his career. Trust the system or trust his instincts. With time running out and lives on the line, Windflower must lean on his team, his training, and the steadfast support of his family and community. Because in Grand Bank, loyalty runs deep and no one gets left behind.
In Book 17 of the Sgt. Windflower Mystery series, bestselling author Mike Martin delivers another compelling read with small-town warmth and high-stakes investigation, where food is shared, friendships are tested, and courage is measured not just in action but in heart.
