Publisher Description
Murder in a small town is always personal.
Dispatcher Zak Waller prefers working behind the scenes in the Sheriff’s Office of Lost Trail, Montana, but when a newcomer to the sparsely populated town is brutally murdered—and the Sheriff is quick to pin the death on an unknown outsider—Zak starts his own private sleuthing.
On the surface Lost Trail is a picture-perfect western town, offering a simple way of life revolving around the local ranches and ski hill. But almost everyone has a secret to protect, and no one knows that more than Zak. He’s part of a younger generation hoping to revitalize the town. But evil has dug in deeper than he knows.
Perfect for fans of the British television film, Broadchurch.
Customer Reviews
Enjoyable read
It went at a nice pace. Just the right amount of scary elements and suspense. Wrapped pleasantly in a fog of mystery. I appreciated that it wasn’t too scary. It even had some unexpected romance. All in all. A very enjoyable read. Also I’m rooting for this Zak character!
Good read
Flowed well and kept you on your toes with multiple twist throughout.
Not enjoyable
I rarely stop reading a book, but this was an exception. I don’t like constantly angry characters and Tiff was perpetually angry or annoyed, and I was never sure why or if it was justified anger. It got very old by about page 175, so I just stopped reading.
