The last remnants of the Horner Gang are still at large and are being tracked by a stranger who bears a startling resemblance to photographs of John Dillinger, Public Enemy Number One. Even the man's name, Jimmy Lawrence, is an alias used by Dillinger. Set in the Dirty Thirties during the Great Depression, Jimmy Lawrence arrives in the quiet, nearly abandoned town of Addison in the middle of Calvert County. He almost freezes to death in an intense spring snowstorm. Rescued by the Fletcher family, he pleads to keep his presence a secret. Soon the Fletchers are stunned by the news of the massacre of a neighboring family. Nine have been murdered in cold blood on their farm. As the town and county begin to mobilize for a massive manhunt, Jimmy Lawrence's presence becomes increasingly suspicious. Is he somehow linked to the murders? As this suspense-ridden thriller unfolds, only one thing is certain --- the lives of the people in Calvert County will be changed forever. Purchase this book here.
