ONE MILE UNDER is book four in the Ty Hauck series.
ONE MILE UNDER starts with a huge bang! Dani Whalen,
finds the body
of Trey Watkins, a fellow whitewater guide during a
routine trip down the
rapids. The local authorities believe that it is an
accident, but Dani doubts
that finding. Ron, or Rooster as everyone calls him, a
hot air balloon
operator, claims to have seen something while he was in
the air and claims
in a crowded bar, "He wasn't alone! It wasn't an
accident." Dani and Ron
arrange to get together the next day to discuss what Ron
saw, but Ron is
killed in a fiery crash the next morning before they can
talk.
Dani's father, Ted, contacts Ty in an email asking for his
help. Dani is in
trouble in Colorado and she needs Ty's help. Her step
father, Wade, is the
chief of police and he has thrown Dani in jail. He says
he is doing it for her
protection, because she is interfering in his
investigation into Trey's death,
but she feels as if Wade is hiding something and keeping
the truth from
getting out. When Ty starts investigating, he is put in
some pretty scary
situations and it is going to keep you on the edge of your
seat just like ONE
MILE UNDER did to me! Someone is keeping some very big
secrets and
will stop at nothing to make sure they aren't exposed.
ONE MILE UNDER is the first Ty Hauck novel Andrew
Gross has written in
five years. Im so glad the wait is over and I got to catch
up with Ty. The
wait was definitely worth it and once again, Mr. Gross
pulls you
right in, speeds up your heart many many times, and never
lets you go! From
the first page, ONE MILE UNDER is a thriller that is going
to have you
forgetting every thing you are supposed to do until you
read the very last
page. Andrew Gross does a great job of explaining the
cause and effect of
fracking. The murders, the town and the people will keep
you reading to the
very end and you will find yourself cheering for Dani and
Ty the whole
time.
In New York Times bestselling author Andrew Gross's
propulsive thriller, set amid the drought-stricken oil
country of Colorado's beautiful high plains, Ty Hauck
makes
his long-awaited return rallying beaten-down farmers and
ranchers against a giant energy company in a deadly
confrontation involving murder, retaliation, and cover-up.
Leading a tour down the rapids outside Aspen, Colorado,
whitewater guide Dani Whalen comes upon the dead body of a
close friend. Trey Watkins's death is ruled an accident.
Finding evidence that seems to back up her suspicions that
it wasn't, she takes her case to Wade Dunn, the local
police
chief and her ex-stepfather, with whom she shares some
unresolved history.
Wade insists the case is closed, but Rooster, a hot air
balloon operator in town, claims he saw something from the
air she should know. When he suddenly dies in a fiery
crash,
Dani threatens to take her suspicions public, goading Wade
into tossing her in jail.
When an old friend contacts Ty Hauck and says his daughter
is in trouble, he doesn't hesitate to get involved.
Together, the two step into a sinister scheme running deep
beneath the surface of a quiet, Colorado town that has
made
a deal with the devil to survive.
But in the square off between giant energy companies and
beaten-down ranchers and farmers, one resource is even
more
valuable in this drought-stricken region than oil. They
both
will kill for it—water.
One Mile Under is a thrilling rapid run of hair-raising
twists and unforeseen turns set against one of the most
provocative environmental issues of our time.
