This is a debut novel by an author we met in Salem, Massachusetts. Not a bad little story set in a small town called Starvation Lake in Michigan.   Gus Carpenter returns to his hometown after failing in the big city of Detroit and begins to investigate the murder of his former hockey coach.
  The story starts out slow, a lot of info about playing hockey but picks up in the second half of the book.  Like, does what Gus remembers about his coach the truth,  what are the secrets that the people he knows are keeping and what is the town covering up??
