Some secrets are buried so deep, it takes a skeleton to unearth them.
Parker City, 1984... When a construction crew demolishing an old warehouse uncovers human remains hidden beneath the floorboards, Detective Sergeant Ben Winters knows someone went to great lengths to make sure those bones were never found. Before he can learn whose skeleton it is, Parker City is rocked by something far more urgent - a cop killer is on the loose. Three officers gunned down in cold blood, and Winters and his partner Detective Tommy Mason have nothing but dead ends.
But the dead have a way of talking.
As the investigation deepens, a chilling truth emerges. The bones beneath the warehouse and the bullets tearing through the city's finest may be separated by twenty-five years, but they share the same dark origin - a story rooted in the glittering backroom corruption of 1950s small-town America, where one incorruptible police officer got too close to the truth and paid for it with his life.
Someone has spent a quarter century making sure that story stayed buried. Now that it's coming to light, they'll do whatever it takes to keep it that way.
Perfect for fans of William Kent Krueger, Julia Spencer-Fleming, and Charles Todd.
