Synopsis

It is the time of the Great Depression.

Thousands have left their homes looking for a better life, a new life. But Marcus Connelly is not one of them. He searches for one thing, and one thing only: Revenge.

Because out there, riding the rails, stalking the camps, is the scarred vagrant who murdered Connelly's daughter.

One man must face a dark truth and answer the question - how much is he willing to sacrifice for his satisfaction?

The Washington Post - Michael Dirda

If you enjoy dark thrillers, and can stand several pages of sustained and anatomically graphic violence, Mr. Shivers will see you through a cold February evening…one must congratulate Robert James Bennett for his convincingly bleak setting and for the creation of Mr. Shivers, "the Harvester," "the Skullsie Man," "the Grinning Bone Dancer." You don't want to meet him—unless your name is Connelly.
