Cover illustration by Vito De Vito. keywords: Mystery. DESCRIPTION - THE REASON WHY. In his senior year of high school, Michael Brandon fell to his death off a cliff called Pierce Point. The coroner ruled the death a suicide, and the case remained closed, until Dwyer received a phone call from an old girlfriend a week before their high school reunion, twenty-five years after Brandon died. She overheard a conversation, shortly after Brandon died, in which three classmates worried what would happen if the truth about Brandon's death ever were revealed. She sent the killers an anonymous letter, asking them to meet her on Pierce Point the night of the reunion. If they're guilty, she figured, they would show up, and if not, she could forget the incident. Problem was, she was getting scared, and she wanted Dwyer to come with her, to confront the men. inventory #23144.…
