EVERYONE HAS A BREAKING POINT

When Dawson Reeves, a seasoned detective on Cape Cod, Massachusetts, is involved in the death of a young girl while pursuing criminal suspects, the incident is so traumatic it obliterates his ability to process the overwhelming self-doubt and tremendous guilt he feels. Stymied in his search for answers as the streets fall under the control of a powerful New England crime family, and with nowhere else to turn, he starts to spiral downward, away from reality… and into an abyss.

Once there he’s not sure he’ll ever be able to get back. Because to get back he’ll have to battle his own demons… and that’s not something he’s sure he can do.

The resulting guilt-riddled journey takes Reeves from the shores of New England and Cape Cod south to the Florida Keys and the island of Key West. There it is not the colorful tropical lifestyle that embraces him, but rather the dark underbelly of the islands: the illicit drug trade business and its dangerous players.

When those players learn his true identity they seize him and take him all the way to the bottom. Now, saturated with heroin and enshrouded in an evil Voodoo curse, he must battle his way back, fighting to rediscover his own identity… and the identity of those responsible for the death that started it all. It will be a battle for his own sanity and peace of mind and that of the young girl’s family. A battle that forces him to return to the angry and dangerous underworld of Cape Cod which so few see.

From idyllic Cape Cod to flamboyant Key West Reeves must learn the hard way that he cannot fight alone. Only through the help of life-long friends, wonderful strangers, strong women, a canine soulmate and a street junkie named Roscoe who’s finally had enough of it all, will he finally get a foothold on reality and find justice for the young girl and her family.
