This major new thriller is Harstad's most compelling novel yet. Deputy Sheriff Cari Houseman returns for the latest instalment in the fast-paced crime series.
In a rural part of Nation County the body of a dead male is discovered in a ditch, one gunshot wound to the head. A routine investigation for Cari Houseman and his team, perhaps. Except strangely there is no way of identifying him: no fingerprint records, no dental records, nothing.
Enter an FBI investigator, a new face from the bureau, who suspects it is the body of a Columbian terrorist. Meanwhile, a local meat-packing plant has been accused of passing off contaminated produce. In a town straining under the pressure of mass immigration, the Jewish plant owners suspect foul play.
Can there be a connection with the Columbian corpse? Houseman and FBI agent Hester Gorse chase the leads once again in another nail- biting race to discover the truth.
