Winter came for the pancakes. Hollowvale fed him the dead.
Dane Winter is unemployed and on a lonely road to nowhere. Riding his motorcycle west from New York, he spots a sign on the Interstate: Hollowvale, Pennsylvania. A place he hasn’t visited since his Redwind Security days. Back then, the town was known for its coal mines and the best pancakes he ever tasted.
A chance encounter with a distraught local woman pulls him into investigating her friend’s disappearance. When Jacob Rhodes’ body is found at the bottom of an abandoned mine shaft, the local authorities are quick to label it an accident. Winter isn’t convinced…
Between the death of Jacob and the unexplained illnesses spreading through the local population, it’s clear that nothing is as it seems in the town of Hollowvale. Worse still, Winter thinks it might have something to do with his time there two years earlier.
What starts as a quest for answers becomes a fight to expose a conspiracy that reaches far beyond the small town.
But Winter is never one to give up, and he’s willing to burn it all down in order to uncover the horrific truth.

My thoughts: Stopping off for what he remembers as excellent pancakes, Dane Winter finds himself embroiled in a murder case and some dodgy dealings at the local plastic recycling plant after a teacher knocks him off his motorbike.
Her friend is missing, having gone camping in the woods, and she fears the worst. Dane offers to help her search for him, but what they find will send shockeaves through the local community when the truth is exposed.
Gripping, full of twists and turns, bent cops, evil corporations and one man with the skills to stay alive and shine a light on the misdeeds of others.
