Synopsis

Lawman-turned-bestselling author Michael McGarrity presents this thrilling Kevin Kerney novel—packed with gritty action—that “series fans will relish” (Publishers Weekly). Following his retirement in Death Song, Kerney is abruptly called back into service.

Kerney, formerly Santa Fe’s chief of police, is living quietly in London with his wife—a military attaché at the American Embassy. Then comes the startling phone call that sends him racing back home to New Mexico. A deranged fugitive has blazed a path of carnage from Texas to Colorado, and an
old friend of Kerney’s was among the first victims. Kerney quickly joins the interstate manhunt for the psychotic killer—but not before enlisting the aid of his half-Apache son, police lieutenant Clayton Istee. As father and son track the madman across the rugged American Southwest, they’ll find out
just how suddenly hunters can become the hunted.
