Dead Quiet

Two deaths. One small town. And a secret that won't stay buried.

When Sheriff Ray Duke finds a burned-out car on a mountain pass, it looks like an accident.

Days later, a former deputy dies in a "single-vehicle crash," that looks like bad luck. But the scenes don't match-and someone made sure the most important evidence disappeared.

As the investigation tightens, Duke's best deputy, Reagan McCoy, realizes her past has followed her to Blue Sky. A restraining order cuts her off from the man she knows is lying, while a smooth corporate fixer offers answers that arrive a little too fast-and point a little too neatly at the wrong suspect.

One death was messy. One was clean. Both were meant to be quiet.

With state investigators closing in and a killer who knows how to make murder look like procedure, Duke has one chance to expose the truth-before the next "accident" ends it for good.
