The latest installment in the Cassie Dewell series follows the private investigator as she tracks the dark and dangerous trail of a con man through the wilds of a small Montana town. The new novel has garnered praise from Library Journal and Publisher’s Weekly.

This is {Cassie’s} sixth outing . . . and the best yet.” Best Thriller Books calls the novel, “another stellar and engaging book from C.J. Box.”
