Hawke's Point

Jonas Hawke, a recovering alcoholic with bouts of crankiness and
unmitigated orneriness, may be past his prime but he's still a damned
good lawyer. That's why everyone in Beacon Junction turns to him
for advice as soon as something goes wrong. And plenty doesâ€”
murder, adultery, corporate conspiracyâ€”everything you'd expect
from a sleepy Vermont town.
A mysterious stranger arrives in town to question Jonas's handling
of a decades-old murder trial, forcing him to confront an ethical lapse
in his past. When evidence surfaces that a heart stent made by a local
company may be deadly, he is drawn into an ethical quagmire that
will determine how he'll be remembered.
Hawke's Point is the story of a broken man who gets a second chance
to do the right thing, a novel with a potent mix of complex characters,
life-and-death problems to keep them busy, and a page-turning plot.

â€œAs Mark Willen explores life in a small Vermont community he
addresses large themes: guilt, forgiveness, familial loss, love, ethical
dilemmas of many kinds. Vivid, complex characters like Jonas Hawke,
retired lawyer and repository of many of the community's secrets, engage
the reader and move the narrative along at an energetic pace. This is a
novel so rich in humanity and situation that the world of Hawke's Point
will continue to beguile long after the reader has turned the last page.â€
â€”Margaret Meyers, author of Dislocation and Swimming in the Congo

â€œEvery town has its secrets and almost all hold such confidences close
to the heart. It takes a determined, resourceful storyteller to bring such
tales to the surface and that's what Mark Willen has done with his new
novel set in the star-crossed town of Beacon Junction.â€
â€”Tim Wendel, author of Red Rain, Habana Libre, and Summer of '68
