"[Jance] continues to grow in her art.... It's no mystery why this
writer is a hit."--Seattle Times
A premium edition reissue of the third electrifying Joanna Brady novel
by New York Times bestselling author J. A. Jance.
A prisoner languishes in a Phoenix jail cell accused of slaying his
estranged wife. No one believes the man is innocent, except the new
female sheriff of Cochise County, in town for a crash course in police
training. Joanna Brady is out of her jurisdiction--and possibly out of
her league. For a human monster is on the prowl, hiding the grisly
evidence of his horrific crimes in the vast emptiness of the Arizona
desert. And an impromptu investigation, with no official sanction, and
no back-up, is drawing a cold, ingenious serial killer much too close to
Brady for comfort--and closer, worse still, to her little girl.
