Product Description
From Booklist
Montgomery County, North Carolina, sheriff Sharyn Howard reluctantly leaves town to attend a retreat for local law enforcement personnel in an abandoned mining town on isolated Sweet Potato Mountain. Soon after she and two of her deputies arrive, one deputy is injured in an old mine shaft and another is killed. Next, several men are killed in an explosion. With an old radio, now broken, their only means of communication, the group--deeply distrustful of one another--starts down the mountain after a raging storm floods the local waterways. Back in town, Sharyn's department investigates the death of a young woman from an apparent car accident, and a sniper shoots another deputy. Alternating story lines keep the narrative moving as suspense builds and the two cases tie together. Personal issues, including Sharyn's difficulties with her boyfriend and her ongoing project to decode her father's journal, add texture to the main plot. This tenth in the series offers an entertaining quick read for fans of rural procedurals. Sue O'Brien
