David Wiltse, author of Prayer for the Dead and Bone Deep, takes readers on a chilling journey into rural America's heart of darkness.

After a would-be assassin leaves Billy Tree's partner dead, and Tree wondering whether his own panicked firing played a part, the decorated Secret Service Agent suffers a crisis of confidence-in his ability, his courage, and his principles-that ends his career. He returns to his hometown, Falls City, Nebraska, in search of solitude and a chance to rediscover his moral center.

But danger lurks where he least expects it: behind a small town's bigotry lies deadly intrigue. As the myth of rural tranquility explodes around him, Tree unravels a conspiracy more terrifying than his most haunting nightmares.
