KNYGA Kerri Hakoda Too Deep to Cross

A shocking discovery on a remote beach brings Detective DeHavilland Beans back to his Yukon River hometown-and a missing person's case turns into a murder investigation. On administrative leave after an unsettling officer-involved shooting, Beans comes to the aid of his childhood friend and sole police officer in the village, Felicia Gunnerson, who is leading the case. The new evidence suggests the missing man, Lloyd Paul, the over-indulged scion of a prominent family, was murdered. Lloyd had a contentious relationship with many of the locals, especially with Beans and his mother, Mari. As Beans and Felicia dig deeper, events that neither of them could have predicted are set in motion. Meanwhile, in the San Francisco Bay area, Mari uncovers secrets that threaten to rewrite the Beans family's history. Spanning a sprawling timeframe ranging from World War II to the present day, the danger has never felt closer to home.
