Milo Porter fought in Iraq to avenge his father’s death, but he came home more brokenhearted. Struggling with PTSD-triggered hallucinations and a crisis of faith, he decides to start over in the Sunshine State. When he lands a job serving court papers, he soon finds himself on the trail of a mystery that blurs the lines between his mundane existence and the mystical. On the hunt for a missing carnival worker with an unclaimed inheritance, he enters the man’s last known residence and gets the sense knocked out of him by a scripture-quoting, frying-pan-wielding squatter. But when he reports the homeless woman’s remarkable claims about the carny’s tragic fate, the police are convinced it’s just another hallucination. When his own memoires are suspect, can Milo solve the mysterious disappearance before he ends up in a psych ward… or six feet under?
