Inhalt: "A marvelous suspense novel [and] a fascinating look at the secretive Irish Traveller culture" (Harry Hunsicker, author of The Contractors ). Named one of the Top 25 Mysteries of 2017 by Strand Magazine After an abrupt end to her tour of duty, former marine MP Brynn Callahan and her canine partner, Wilco, arrive stateside—both bearing the scars of battle. With a mix of affection and misgivings, Brynn heads back to Bone Gap, Tennessee, and the insular culture she'd escaped when she enlisted. But it's hard to bury the past when bodies keep turning up. The Irish Travellers keep to themselves in the mountains, maintaining an uneasy coexistence with the "settled" townspeople of McCreary. But when Wilco's training as a cadaver dog leads Brynn to a body in the woods, long-simmering tensions threaten to boil over. Forming a reluctant alliance with the local sheriff, Brynn must dig up secrets that not only rattle her close-knit clan to its core, but may forever change her perception of who she is—and put her back in the line of fire—in this "terrific read" (Christine Carbo, author of The Weight of Night ). "An auspicious series debut." — Publishers Weekly "Furlong spins a mystery that will keep you on the edge of your seat." —K.J. Howe, author of The Freedom Broker "Brynn and her war-injured dog are characters readers will root for." —Suzanne Chazin, author of the Georgia Skeehan series "Furlong's steel-tough, authentic storytelling promises suspense and truth . . . and delivers." —Larry D. Sweazy, award-winning author of The Coyote Tracker
