Summary

Ray Wilson only cared about one thing for most of his life -- golf and being the best golfer in the world. He sacrificed everything to be an elite athlete, including personal relationships, until he turned forty and his life changed drastically. A chronic back injury forced him into retirement, and the loss of his sister made him the guardian to his young niece, Chloe. Three years later, Ray is completely removed from the sport he once loved so much, entirely focused on his role as Chloe's adopted father and struggling with his limited mobility.
Until a call from an old friend changes his life once again. A talented young player, Jimmy Hart, needs Ray's help with a once in a lifetime opportunity to join the professional golf tour. Ray is familiar with the younger man. Three years ago, they shared a flirtation but Ray never thought more could come from it. Jimmy is everything Ray is not -- young and healthy, single and free, beautiful and talented and Ray definitely has more than a professional interest. But does the handsome young player see Ray as more than just a mentor?

    Gabriel is a former undercover cop haunted by the things he's seen and done. He returns to his small hometown of Prophet, taking on the role of sheriff, hoping to mend his fractured relationship with his estranged brother and rebuild his life. But when a chilling murder occurs at Sentinel Rocks, a sacred Makah site on Lake Prophet, Gabriel's dreams of peace and reconciliation are shattered. 
     
     
     
    Gabriel navigates a web of intrigue, where suspects abound; from local tribal elders to fervent Solstice worshippers and even those hunting the elusive Big Foot. When the brutal murder leaves Duke, a loyal Labrador retriever, as the sole witness, Gabriel stumbles upon an unexpected ally—a local animal behaviorist named Tiber. 
     
     
     
    Tiber, a newcomer to Prophet, seeks refuge in this remote haven. Armed with his extraordinary ability to communicate with animals, he offers his expertise through video consultations. While he attributes his skill to his academic background, his intuition and flashes of insight owe as much to his Navajo heritage as to science. 
     
     
     
    With the relentless rain washing away sins and good intentions alike, Gabriel and Tiber must begin to confront their vulnerabilities and unravel the truth.
