**In the third gripping crime novel in Ace Atkins's New York Times
bestselling series, small town sheriff Quinn Colson takes on deadly
criminals and even deadlier weather...
**
A year after becoming sheriff of Tibbehah County, Mississippi, Quinn
Colson is faced with a pardoned killer's return to Jericho. Jamey Dixon
now preaches redemption and forgiveness, but the family of the woman he
was convicted of killing isn't buying it. They warn Quinn that his
sister's relationship with Dixon could be fatal. Others don't think the
new preacher is a changed man, either--a couple of dangerous convicts
who confided in Dixon about an armored car robbery believe he's after
the money they hid. So they do the only thing they can: break out and
head straight to Jericho, leaving a trail of bodies in their wake.
Colson and his deputy, Lillie, have their work cut out for them. But
they don't count on one more unwelcome visitor: a tornado that causes
havoc just as the manhunt heats up. Communications are down, the roads
are impassable--and the rule of law is just about to snap.
