High Road David Wolf Mystery Thriller Series, Book 15 By Jeff Carson
When a sheriff’s son turns up dead under sinister circumstances, Detective David Wolf reluctantly confronts demons from his past to prevent a grieving lawman’s quest for vengeance from becoming a massacre.
Though the foreboding case awaits in unfriendly territory, Wolf cannot refuse a call for aid from fellow law enforcement. But upon crossing into Crow Valley, he discovers more waiting than just a challenging mystery. Wolf shares a painful personal history with the hulking sheriff-turned-avenger, one defined by conflict and mistrust from their gridiron days.
Buried secrets soon surface that fracture the truth into elusive pieces. Innocent lives hang in the balance as vigilante justice casts a rising body count shadow over the remote valley community. Wolf must navigate unseen forces rendering all sides blind, powerful men wielding badges as weapons, and personal grudges twisting justice into endangered lines between life and death.
This time the seasoned detective faces not just political minefields, killer conspiracies, and ticking clocks, but the limits of his own principles. Wolf must separate complex truths from deception before one miscalculation tips the scales from investigation to uproar. Can he prevent a mourning father’s vengeance campaign from becoming a slaughter by standing firm for the law, even against old foes? Or will buried specters of the past claim Wolf as their final victim?
