Overview

In this explosive crime thriller from the award-winning author of Rattlesnake Daddy, a disgraced intelligence agent tries to prove her innocence. Or die trying.


Hella Duran was "a good piece of gear," according to her CO. She had a sock full of medals to prove it.

But then it went terribly wrong.

Rejected by the Army, she goes home to Nebraska, only to find that her family and hometown reject her, too. Homeless, she realizes the only way back is to find out what really happened that day in Afghanistan.

But her search for the truth draws a relentless killer to America's heartland, a man who'll stop at nothing to protect his secret. A soul-shattering truth that, if it gets out, will deal a death blow to democracy.

Can she uncover the truth? Or will it be buried with her and her family under a moonlit dune deep in the Nebraska Sandhills?

This is a book for readers who loved Those Who Wish Me Dead, Winter's Bone, and Girl with the Dragon Tattoo.
