Too good to be playing by the rules, so the brass assign a new partner to spy on him. Taggart's new partner discovers a society dependent upon unwritten rules. To break these rules is to lose respect, and to lose respect is to lose one's life. Loose Ends is is a tale of violence, corruption, and retribution, but it is also a story of honour and respect.

"Jack Taggart is our Mountie, and he lives in a fallen world where everything from your shoes to your name can be changed in an instant. What's slick about this story is that Taggart is under suspicion by his own force: The RCMP has set a spy on him in the form of a new partner. In the tradition of Training Day, Taggart is about to teach his new charge some tough life lessons."
Globe and Mail
"A gripping novel that is difficult to put down, Loose Ends is everything a mystery should be. At times it is a heart-wrenching tale, and at others a loathing epic of criminal unjustness. For those of us who have lived always by the book, Easton shows that the book sometimes needs to be set aside... Right or wrong, you can't help but ... respect the motives of our main character."
RCMP Quarterly
"The grime and grisliness portrayed in Loose Ends are solidly rooted in reality, but be prepared for some pretty shocking revelations. ... The ending will blow you away."
