The Vermont Coppers

Natalie Dvorak #10: Vermont State Police Detective-Sergeant Natalie Dvorak gets a new partner as she investigates the case of Lee Roser, a quiet loner who lives in an isolated house in the woods. Roser has been reported missing by his half-brother but a tenant in the house claims Roser has left the country. Natalie and her partner come across a private detective who’s also looking for Lee Roser but won’t say why. Evidence of a decades-old love affair emerges along with a story about a missing treasure dating back to the days of the independent Vermont Republic. The missing person case turns into a homicide and one cop’s mistake threatens to undermine the whole investigation.
