A Lonely Journey's End

As the temperature rises, so do the stakes.

In the summer of 2005, the beach town of Oceanic Park is roiled by anti-immigrant tensions.  A group calling itself the Oceanic Park Vigilantes is conducting an anti-immigrant flyering campaign, and an abrasive talk-show host named Walter Braddock is using his show as a platform for spreading inflammatory anti-immigrant rhetoric.

When a migrant worker is brutally murdered, a member of the Oceanic Park Vigilantes is charged with the crime and small-town attorney Ned Johnston is drawn into the case.  As Johnston investigtates, he begins to realize that the murder is part of a much larger and more sinister political conspiracy with origins in events that occurred years before.  With tensions rising in the community and time running out, can Ned uncover the identity of the killer and expose an insidious plot, or will he find himself ensnared in a deadly conspiracy that threatens to consume the town he loves?

Reviews:

“…A Lonely Journey’s End: An Oceanic Park Mystery is a must-read thriller you won’t be able to put down.  The twists and turns in the narrative, the socially relevant themes which play on in our own society, and the shocking cliffhanger finale will keep readers hanging onto the very edge of their seat.”  Pacific Book Review

“The highlight of Cabin’s novel is the depiction of Oceanic Park as a place that feels real and lived in. The story also successfully captures the tumultuous post-9/11 politics of the George W. Bush era.”  Kirkus Reviews
