The Protector

He had no choice. It had to be done. Still, it grated on him as he sped down the dark, deserted highway back to the city. He didn't want it to come to this. Lord knows he tried everything he could to avoid it. They had become so close. Like brother and sister. Mentor to pupil. He had done so much to help her over the years. He had practically become part of the family. She had hit rock bottom more than once and it was only his loving care and support that kept her going.
But in the end, she had become another traitor to him. This was the thanks he got for all he had done for her and her daughter. Even at this point, with all the evidence he had, he still had a hard time believing she could turn on him this way. But there was no doubt. He had seen the proof with his own failing eyes. Inspector Diane Wilson is summoned to lead a team to help locate a missing senior.
It soon turns into a murder case when her nearly unrecognizable body is found washed ashore along the sandy beaches of Lake Winnipeg in the sleepy cottage town of Gimli, Manitoba. As Diane digs deeper, she butts heads with a devious and diabolical adversary who targets anyone who stands in his way.
