Investigative reporter Trent Strong takes over the weekly newspaper in his northern Minnesota hometown after escaping a dangerous situation in Chicago. In short order, however, he encounters trouble again: someone murders Trent's former high school love, who owns the local milling company; and someone incinerates another long-time friend, who wanted to blow the whistle on illegal dumping by the same mill. Since suspicion seems to fall on Trent, he investigates. Unaccompanied by emotion, humor, or pizazz, the narration falls somewhat flat. Possibly of regional interest; Scott is also the author of thrillers like The Dolomite Solution.
