Set in Michigan’s Upper Peninsula, this compendium includes unabridged versions of two more of the best-loved Seamus McCree novels.
GRANITE OATH (Seamus McCree #7): On a Thursday afternoon, Kat Serrano leaves work early, briefly returns to her remote trailer deep in Michigan’s Upper Peninsula woods, and drives off with no explanation to her family. Two days later someone ransacks the trailer.
Kat is a Dreamer, and her mother won’t talk to the police for fear she’ll be deported and lose her 8-year-old granddaughter, Valeria.
Valeria is devastated by the events. She and her best friend from summer camp, Megan McCree, employ a "Pinky-swear" to get Megan’s grandfather Seamus McCree to learn what happened.
Seamus uncovers a tangled web of drugs, prostitution, and dummy corporations, and soon finds himself the target of killers. Anyone sane would wash his hands of the mess or turn it over to the police.
But Seamus has given his word, his granite oath, to learn the truth . . . even if it kills him.
The Happy Reaper, notorious for his chilling efficiency and "Results Guaranteed" calling card, escapes prison. Instead of killing Seamus McCree on sight, he offers a diabolical bargain with a heart-stopping proviso. To live, Seamus must help the Happy Reaper find and eliminate the upstart impostor who’s trashing the assassin’s reputation.
And Seamus must act quickly. Should the Happy Reaper’s bad heart give out or any harm come to him, the criminal underworld will wreak carnage on Seamus . . . and his loved ones.
Can Seamus outsmart the impostor and appease the Happy Reaper without staining his soul with blood? The only thing Seamus knows for sure is that time is running out for him and his family.
