"In his fifth story, Kevin Kerney, New Mexico cop, has to handle the investigation into the seemingly random killing of six victims found murded at remote campgrounds in the vast desert and high mountains of New Mexico. He battles lies, deceit and family secrets and a stalker with an appetite for revenge to piece together a shocking motive for murder while dealing with a wife he rarely sees, and a startling surprise from the past. Kerney has to use all his skill to survive and find the killer"
