Description

One of the best new voices in the mystery genre."" —William Kent Krueger, New York Times bestselling author



Bill Sanderson—former high school quarterback, husband to Carrie, one-time husband to Sheri, used car salesman, lover of easy money—had a plan. Now, it’s Labor Day weekend and Bill’s dead in his bed. An early morning call brings Deputy Ben Packard to the scene of a home invasion.



Everyone Packard talks to has a story about Bill, but no one has a clear motive for wanting him dead. The business partner. The ex-wife. The current wife. The high-stakes poker buddies. Any of them—or none of them—could be guilty.



As the investigation begins, tragedy strikes the Sheriff’s department, forcing Packard to make a difficult choice about his future: step down as acting Sheriff and pursue the quiet life he came to Sandy Lake in search of, or subject himself to the scrutiny of an election for the full-time role of Sheriff, a job he’s not sure he wants.



There’s a hidden history to Sandy Lake that Packard, ever the outsider, can’t see. Bad blood and old secrets run deep. But an attempt on Packard’s life means he’s getting uncomfortably close to the dangerous legacy of the quiet Minnesota town. And someone will do anything to keep it hidden.



"Observant and authentic (and funny, too)...the literary descendant of Fargo and Mare of Easttown."" —Adam White, bestselling author of The Midcoast

Dont recommend :/

I love the mystery genre, but this book unfortunately didn’t do it for me. I definitely struggled to finish the book, it didn’t hook me at all. I figured out who did the murder during the first chapters, no big plot twist. just a simple detective story

I love mystery genre. I would highly recommend this book. However, this is apparently the second book, read ‘And There He Kept Her’ first.
