From the Inside Flap
Set entirely in the Northeast Kingdom of Vermont, an isolated, thinly populated part of the state, Borderlines tells of Joe Gunther's temporary assignment to the local State's Attorney's office, which he has taken on in part to get away from Brattleboro, and from his girlfriend, Gail Zigman, with whom he's had a fight. Set in the fictional town of Gannett, the story soon shifts to the discovery of a man's body, and the possible involvement of a back-to-nature cult that owns half the real estate in town. Juggling his own personal problems, jurisdictional disputes with the state police, an escalating animosity between cult members and townies, and a growing number of homicides, Joe moves as fast as he can before events reach a critical mass and overwhelm him.
