Deputy Sheriff Robert Haskell may seem laid-back, might even seem like a goofball, but he's a tough and efficient cop when he has to be. And Rob is none too thrilled to see feebs on his turf -- even when one of the agents is smart, handsome, and probably gay. But a butchered body in a Native American museum is out of his small town department's league.
For that matter, icy, uptight Adam Darling is out of Rob's league. But that doesn't mean Rob won't take his best shot. Previous page. Print length. Sticky notes. On Kindle Scribe. Publication date.

Verified Purchase. She rarely misses and certainly doesn't with this one! Josh writes a good story - this one started off slowly and I felt "snowed down" with a lot of extraneous detail Somewhere between a romance and a crime thriller, but falling short on both. It's cock teasing without a release. Too bad because the story has everything you need for a great novel. See all reviews. Top reviews from other countries.
The story is well-paced and gripping and the characters are really interesting and well-drawn. The negatives are relatively small niggles but they do impact on my enjoyment of the book and should have been caught by a professional editor.
Firstly, there's a passage in which one of the main characters deliberately locks a door. Another character then enters the building without having any means to unlock it.
Will there be justice? The town is on edge and the behaviour of Amber's boyfriend adds to the tension. Re:sound The Determination Show: This hour, amateur detectives, spiritual revelations and other stories of dogged perseverance.

And Rob is none too thrilled to see feebs on his turf—even when one of the agents is smart, handsome, and probably gay. A bitter cold that stung his cheeks and made his eyes water. Even the ripe, low-hanging moon looked frosted over. He hugged himself, stamped his feet on the hard ground, and tried not to long for home and his warm bed. He and Buck were going to start a new life together.
Away from here. But it was lonely out here. No doubt about it. Lonely and quiet and very dark. In the moonlight the snow on the surrounding mountains looked silver, and the tips of the blue-black pine needles seemed to glow. Anybody who thought there was only one shade of black should try standing out in the middle of nowhere surrounded by shifting shadows and wavering light. Then he worried Buck might have changed his mind. It felt unlucky to let that thought form, but it had taken Buck a while to come around to his way of thinking.
He licked his lips nervously. The night tasted of snow. He pounded his boots some more on the rock-hard ground and stomped back and forth across the clearing. At last he heard the approaching rumble of a truck engine. His heart pounded faster and he felt a little sick with excitement and fear. It was for real. They were going to do it. He said, Feebs. From the observation deck at Rogue Valley International-Medford Airport they watched in silence as Alaska Airlines Flight touched down, skimmed the rain-blackened runway, and taxied slowly toward the terminal.
A few long minutes passed before the mobile stairway was lined up with the plane doors. The cabin door opened. At last the passengers began to disembark. It was already twelve thirty and in this weather it would take about an hour to drive from Medford to the resort of Nearby. He sighed inwardly.
It had been a long morning and it was going to be a long afternoon. Of that, he had zero doubt. A woman carrying a briefcase exited the plane.
The rainy breeze tousled her long, pale hair. She threw a comment over her shoulder to a man in an olive raincoat. The man replied and the woman laughed. Rob smiled grimly because that time Zeke nailed it.
Tall and blond and elegant in their His and Hers trench coats, these two looked more like they were auditioning for a hot new TV series than real law enforcement. But law enforcement they were. Come on, he said again, and this time he meant it. Zeke heaved a heavy sigh but followed him downstairs to the Arrival Gate where Barbie and Ken were impatiently scanning the waiting crowd for their welcome committee.
The bystanders parted before Rob and Zeke. This is Agent Gould. Deputies, Gould said. She had a very pretty smile.
No question who played Good Cop on that team. Darling directed a look that should have left Zeke encased in ice, and Rob preserved his poker face with effort. Rob spoke over him. He gave Zeke a helpful, hard nudge in the direction of the exit. Zeke winced and glared at him. You have any luggage? Rob asked the feds. Gould held up her briefcase. Rob started the engine.
Zeke asked, looking back at their passengers. We believe we have twenty-one confirmed kills. She might have been discussing the weather.
I almost applied to the FBI, Zeke said. Rob managed to swallow his snort. Zeke gave her his biggest, widest grin. She smiled back, but he was wasting his time there. Gould was so far out of his league she might have been from another planet.
Darling did not blink, did not look away. Maybe Darling wore contacts. Either way…that was one very direct, very intense regard. In other circumstances, it might mean a couple of things. Even in these circumstances that look might mean a couple of things. Unlikely, but still…. How many members on your taskforce? Zeke asked. The whole West Coast is involved, right? We had a two-hour layover in Seattle, Darling said.
Gould glanced at her partner. We could use some of this rain in California. Right, Zeke said. Maybe it was suicide. Maybe John Doe buried himself beneath that rock pile. Sunday afternoon, campers had discovered human remains buried in a shallow grave covered with rocks on a decommissioned logging road off Route Which just went to prove what a high profile case the Roadside Ripper was.
That seemed pretty far-fetched to Rob. There was nothing Zeke liked more than talking about himself, and he was off and running. Off at the mouth. Agent Gould kept him primed with the occasional comment, but it was clear to Rob she was just making conversation—or maybe avoiding discussing their case. No thanks. John Doe had been found just too far off the beaten track. Gould was still making polite sounds.
Darling stared out the SUV window at the wet and glistening tall trees lining the road leading deep into the national forest. Rob pressed the gas and the SUV leaped forward.
Zeke gave him a reproachful look, but Rob ignored him. Quaint, Gould said. It was unclear whether she was referring to the autopsy arrangements or the black wrought iron fencing which made the small yard in front of the brick and white clapboard building look like a miniature graveyard.
Rob turned off the engine and undid his seatbelt. They climbed out of the SUV and went through the ornate gate, which shut behind them with an unmusical clank. The rain had stopped for the time being. The air was cold and smelled of pine trees. Sodden autumn colored leaves were plastered to the walkway; the white wooden steps were slick and wet. As they reached the glass double door entry, Frankie pushed open the door and leaned out.
Did you take the long way? I was starting to think you got lost. Frankie ignored him. She nodded in greeting at Darling and Gould. Thanks for coming on such short notice. She offered a tanned, freckled hand to Darling, who shook with her saying, We appreciate the heads-up, Sheriff. Frankie held the door wide for Gould, who got a shrewd look—beige pumps to coiffed hair—as she passed.
We realize this is off your beaten track, but it never hurts to be sure. Frankie had probably never worn a pair of heels in her life. She was a short, stout woman in her mid-fifties with a ruddy, weathered face and frizzy, rust-colored hair.
But despite her non-glamorous appearance and brusque demeanor, she was liked and respected by the citizens she had served for so long. So we heard, Darling said as Frankie led the way through an obstacle course of empty caskets and urns stuffed with silk flowers. A gust of rain-washed air from the open door ruffled the silk petals and sent a couple of soulful portraits of praying children knocking against the walnut paneled walls.
There was a weird ambiance to the place, an uncomfortable mix of commercial and mournful. An ordinary, modern morgue probably would have been less disturbing. Even Frankie lowered her voice when she addressed Rob and Zeke. Zeke, I want you to get back over to the office.
You two knuckle-heads shut up, Frankie growled. I said—. This is a great learning experience, Zeke kept on. Frankie began to splutter. She got control and said, Keep your voice down! Eden has folks in the Arrangement Room right this minute. And no wonder. Instead, he muttered, The bereaved, you dumbass.
Yes, the bereaved, Frankie said impatiently. Real live customers. What do you think I mean? She nodded at his shoulder mic. Zeke threw Rob a look of triumph, and Rob shook his head because there was no competition, whatever Zeke imagined. He would happily surrender his spot at the autopsy table to anyone who asked. What kind of call are we going to get? Zeke muttered. Jack Elkins got stuck in the mud again? The doorway swung onto a short set of steps leading downstairs.
They found the agents in the Preparation Room speaking with Doc Cooper. Doc was tall and rangy with gold wire spectacles and a white, handlebar mustache. He was older than Frankie; had been ME long before Frankie had first taken office. He wore cowboy boots, and drove a vintage red mustang. And he had a surprisingly pleasant bedside manner, given that the bedsides he generally attended were slabs in the morgue. The body—more accurately, the skeleton—had already been removed from the large stainless steel refrigerator in the back of the sterile white room, and arranged on the metal morgue table.
The yellowed skull—gaping jaw and dark, empty eye sockets—grinned sightlessly up into the remorseless white light of the overhead lamps.
It was not his first autopsy. Not pity—because death and decay was what happened to everyone in the end—but something. Something like that. Between the chill air and the smell of chemicals, anyone might feel kind of off.
He had to repress an inappropriate smile. Not like this was a social occasion. He nodded to his white-clad assistant standing by the door, and the assistant flipped the switch. An instant and heavy gloom descended on the room. Only the spread of bones on the table remained illuminated in that fierce circle of light.
Boots, jeans, T-shirt, jacket. The skeleton is sixty-nine inches long so he would have been about five feet nine inches tall. Not a big fella. Open navigation menu. Close suggestions Search Search.
