In many ways, the brothers Carl and Roy Opgard have succeeded in life. Or at least they’ve had as much success as is possible in a small town like Os. Carl manages the area’s swanky spa hotel, while Roy runs the petrol station and has made plans for an amusement park complete with a roller coaster. But when it looks like a new highway is to be built next to Os, something has to be done, even if the methods are bound to be dirty. Luckily, the brothers have some experience of just that kind of work.

Meanwhile the sheriff has gotten his hands on new technology that he means can prove the brothers’ involvement in several murders back in time. And the number continues to climb. Like Roy says about the roller coaster: “Once it’s rolling, it’s too late to get off.”

Blood Ties is a grandiose and explosive suspense novel about loyalty, family ties, consuming love, and the fight against powerful forces. It will transport you to a community in crisis and tell the story of two brothers on the verge of losing all that they’ve fought for. Blood Ties is a novel of lost souls and even more dead bodies.
