Publisher's Synopsis
Fifteen years ago I watched my father's murder. Now, having never truly recovered from losing her father all those years ago, Detective Delaney Pace is devastated when her brother and sister-in-law are killed in a car crash. Packing up her life she heads back to the rugged cowboy town of Kearney, Wyoming. Her niece Kateena is just eleven years old and Delaney will do anything to keep her safe. Now there's another killer on the loose, and he's already taken his first victim. New to the local police force, when a body is found on a secluded mountain trail Delaney is called to the scene. Surrounded by imposing pine trees, a young woman lies still in the moonlight. Gazing into her dark, unblinking eyes Delaney's heart pounds wildly in her chest as she recognises the victim. It's her beloved sister-in-law: Kateena's mother, Lila. But she died weeks before. Didn't she?
