Sheriff Frank Collins is having a bad streak for the ages. He’s losing his bid for re-election, hitting a brick wall in solving the murder of a special needs man whose naked body was left in a field, and alienated from his wife and daughter after having an affair with his secretary.
But he doesn’t have time to sweat the small stuff.
Because Frank’s bigger problem comes in the form of Charlie Ray Hamby, Gaol County’s most infamous psychopath. Even though everyone knows Charlie Ray murdered several people, nothing ever stuck until he was nabbed in a drug bust. Now, Charlie Ray’s out on parole and coming home with an ax to grind. Because Charlie Ray says he was set up and people have some things to answer for.
The first of a new series in rural noir, A Hard Frost will entertain fans of writers such as Larry Brown and James Lee Burke.
Genre: Mystery
