What to expect
Returning to the small town where he crash-landed in 1963, Ishmael Jones is in search of answers. But his investigation is derailed by a brutal murder.
“I think something very bad and very dangerous has come to your little town, Inspector …”
As long-buried memories from his hidden past begin to resurface, Ishmael Jones and his partner Penny feel compelled to return to the small country town where Ishmael crash-landed in 1963; the place where his memories began. Norton Hedley is no ordinary town. Apparitions, sudden disappearances, sightings of unusual beasts: for centuries, the place has been plagued by a series of inexplicable events.
Ishmael’s first task is to track down local author Vincent Smith, the one man he believes may have some answers. Ishmael and Penny aren’t the only ones seeking the mysterious Mr. Smith. When their search unearths a newly dead body in the local mortuary—a body that’s definitely not supposed to be there—Ishmael becomes the prime suspect in the ensuing murder investigation. His only hope of discovering the truth about his origins lies in exposing a ruthless killer.
Critics Review

“An Earth-acculturated alien’s fragmentary memories encourage him to learn more about where he came from…Book 10 of Green’s series boldly fleshes out the hero’s origin story to fine effect.”
