The sixth book in Karin Slaughter's #1 bestselling GRANT COUNTY series.

Lena Adams has spent her life struggling to forget her childhood in Reece, the small town which nearly destroyed her. She's made a new life as a police detective in Heartsdale - but nothing could prepare her for the violence which explodes when she is forced to return.

A vicious murder leaves a young woman incinerated beyond recognition. And Lena is the only suspect.

Her boss, police chief Jeffrey Tolliver, has no choice but to help. Soon after his arrival, a second victim is found dead and the town closes ranks.

Jeffrey is soon entangled in a horrifying underground world of bigotry and rage.

Can he discover the truth before the killer strikes again?
