Description

Following an auspicious encounter with a Saudi fly fisherman who was in over his head, Locke Christensen embraced the good life in the mountain paradise of Telluride, Colorado. Flush with cash, snowboarding by day and playing harmonica in a blues band by night, the retired FBI criminologist and private detective thought he had put his law enforcement career on ice. But no matter how far you go, the past has a way of catching up with you. When a family member asks for his assistance in solving a baffling missing persons case near his hometown in the Northwoods of Minnesota, Locke finds himself embroiled in a high-stakes game of cat and mouse with a sociopathic killer, hell-bent on bringing the agency he once worked for to its knees. Tenacious and vindictive, the mysterious and deadly "Red" relishes a challenge, and Locke's sense of duty places him directly in the crosshairs. He must decide just how much he is willing to lose to see this killer brought to justice. With more twists and turns than a double black diamond, Vermilion is a gripping thriller that takes you deep into the twisted psyche of the criminal mind.
