Star FBI detective Amos Decker and his colleague Alex Jamison must
solve four increasingly bizarre murders in a dying rust belt town--and
the closer they come to the truth, the deadlier it gets in this
rapid-fire #1 New York Times bestseller.
Something sinister is going on in Baronville. The rust belt town has
seen four bizarre murders in the space of two weeks. Cryptic clues left
at the scenes--obscure bible verses, odd symbols--have the police
stumped.
Amos Decker and his FBI colleague Alex Jamison are in Baronville
visiting Alex's sister and her family. It's a bleak place: a former mill
and mining town with a crumbling economy and rampant opioid addiction.
Decker has only been there a few hours when he stumbles on a horrific
double murder scene.
Then the next killing hits sickeningly close to home. And with the lives
of people he cares about suddenly hanging in the balance, Decker begins
to realize that the recent string of deaths may be only one small piece
of a much larger scheme--with consequences that will reach far beyond
Baronville.
Decker, with his singular talents, may be the only one who can crack
this bizarre case. Only this time--when one mistake could cost him
everything--Decker finds that his previously infallible memory may not
be so trustworthy after all...
