Publisher's summary

As real as today's headlines.

A gruesome crucifixion on the courthouse lawn kicks off chaos in Jergen County. As Jordan and his team discover four similar killings in the United States, the FBI steps in. The Federal case links the killings to a notorious civil rights worker’s murder in the 1960s. For these killings, the motive? Revenge. The suspects? Iconic figures in the Black community. Described as a slam dunk for the prosecution, the case proceeds, threatening to ignite violence in this small rural community similar to riots in major US cities.

While the federal case proceeds, doubts about the case emerge in Jordan’s mind. Except for one minor flaw, the case appears too perfect. In his own words, “Did these criminal masterminds commit murder across the country and all of a sudden become stupid in Jergen County”?

While he pokes at this flaw, more loose strings emerge, leading him on his own chase for the truth. While moving Urich to lead on the Federal case, he and Murphy set out on a hunt of their own. Will they uncover a different solution? One that can defuse the powder keg that threatens to explode this peaceful rural community? Or will their efforts cause the Federal case to fail, allowing the killers to walk free? Come along and find out.

Robert Jordan, a hint of Michael Connelly’s Harry Bosch with a twist of James Lee Burke’s Dave Robicheaux. The result? One fine detective!
