About

On September 22, 1954, mob informant Walter Donnell was brutally slain with a sledgehammer during the biggest prison riot in Missouri State Penitentiary's 118 years of operation. Prison guard Henry Lippman is found beaten and unconscious in Donnell's cell. After spending nine days in a coma, Lippman has never spoken of the horrors witnessed that evening.

Three decades later, eight-year-old Billy Boyd and his newly widowed mother say good-bye to their shattered lives in Northern Virginia. A reclusive great uncle they've never met is in need of care, but when they arrive in Pelican Cove on the east coast of Florida at the home of Henry Lippman, nothing is as expected.

Someone is watching. Someone has always been watching and tormenting Henry with cryptic postcards as a grim reminder to keep his painful thirty years of silence.
