Description by Author:
When upcoming country music star Taylor
Harris hires a private investigator to catch her cheating husband, she gets a
lot more than she bargained for. He says he’s found a secret in her past that
even she’s not aware of - a curse on her life, a blood feud hanging over her
for thirty years. But when he disappears, it’s down to PI Evan Buckley to pick
up the pieces. Was the threat real? And if so, did it disappear along with the
crooked investigator? Or did it just get worse?
Heading down to small-town Jasper in East
Texas to follow in his unscrupulous predecessor’s footsteps, Evan finds himself
embroiled in the lies and dark secrets that flourish in the tightly-knit
community where outsiders are resented and people have their own ways of
dealing with them. From the local lead detective to a retired dirty cop to a
shady figure hiding behind the facade of a secret shell corporation, Evan
quickly gets on the wrong side of them all.
And as his search draws to a close, inflaming
old scores dormant for half a lifetime and laying bare the biggest lie of all,
he’s forced to put a heavy burden on his unsuspecting client, one that he knows
all too well himself.
