A frozen Jane Doe and ruthless cattle rustlers push an overwhelmed lawman to his limits in this atmospheric neo-western mystery thriller, perfect for fans of Longmire.
The deepest snow can't hide his county's darkest sins
When the highly respected sheriff of Lodge Pole County is murdered, his son, semi-retired rodeo cowboy "Bad Bobby" Trent, is asked to complete his term in office. It should be easy enough work until he's healthy enough to return to the circuit.
But being sheriff takes a little more than sipping coffee and breaking up bar brawls.
As a brutal Montana winter sets in, an unknown woman's body is found frozen in the wilderness. Alongside the unexplained death, someone's stealing cattle from the local ranchers. If they have it their way, that someone will hang.
And when an out-of-state reporter starts asking questions about a decades-old cold case, Bobby suddenly finds himself way out of his depth.
Battling blinding blizzards and gnawing self-doubt, can this overwhelmed cowboy stop a killer from striking twice?
