Outstanding... A terrible, beautiful tale of courage and compassion and culpability. * Publishers Weekly *STARRED REVIEW* * A compelling story with suspenseful action, wonderful characters, and an equally impressive plot... This novel is one of Box's best. * Denver Post * It takes a certain kind of crime writer to make a story as psychologically complex as it is nail-biting, and Box has mastered the form. * Daily Beast * This stellar novel combines harrowing adrenaline rushes with complex morality, humor, and a landscape described so vibrantly it seems to have a life all its own. * People Magazine * One of the most talented thriller writers at work today. * Daily Express * One of today's solid-gold A-list must-read writers * LEE CHILD * I love Joe Pickett. Box is on top of his game * MICHAEL CONNELLY *

A body hangs from a wind turbine, a bullet hole in his chest: Earl Alden, millionaire property developer. His wife, Missy, is the prime suspect. It wouldn't be a problem for Joe Pickett, if Missy weren't his mother-in-law. Missy claims she's innocent, and for his wife's sake, Joe would like to believe her... but all the early signs point to her being as guilty as sin. With his wife on one side and the law on the other, Joe needs to get to the truth before his family is ripped apart.
