Indelible : A Sean McPherson Novel, Book 1 Paperback / softback

When a sniper killed his partner, Sean McPherson was injured in the ambush.

Now an ex-cop, he takes a job at a writing retreat in the Pacific Northwest.

At Pines & Quill, he hopes to heal and put his life back together in the Zen-like capacity of groundskeeper and all-around handyman. Sniper, Jason Hughes, blames McPherson for the loss of more than ten million dollars’ worth of heroin—and he wants revenge. In the guise of a New York City limo driver working on a sizzling tell-all memoir, Hughes arrives at Pines & Quill along with three other writers in residence: a bohemian psychic taking a break from grueling work as a forensic intuitive, a bitter divorcée who wants to open herself to a new life, and a vibrant and resilient potter navigating life from a wheelchair. With conflicting agendas, uncertain loyalties, and romantic entanglements at play, Hughes finds it difficult to get McPherson in his sights.

Gradually, he forms a different plan, one that threatens the lives of everyone at the retreat.
