Lowertown

Herman Jackson is a former bookie and small-time racketeer from

Detroit trying to live down his shady past by running a legitimate bail

bond business in St. Paul, but it is January, and definitely the winter of

his discontent. Somebody has used his name and license without his

consent, or even knowledge, to bail out a vicious killer who immediately

disappears. The only solid lead Jackson has is a laptop computer found

in the killer’s apartment which contains details of vicious crimes, past

and future. After a bloody showdown in a snowbound cabin in the

deep woods, Jackson hopes he can stop looking over his shoulder for

good.
