As a medical examiner, Samantha Owens knows her job is to
make a certain sense of death with crisp methodology and
precision instruments.
But the day the Tennessee floods
took her husband and children, the light vanished from
Sam's
life. She has been pulled into a suffocating grief no
amount
of workaholic ardor can penetrate—until she receives a
peculiar call from Washington, D.C.
On the other end
of the line is an old boyfriend's mother, asking Sam to do
a
second autopsy on her son. Eddie Donovan is officially the
victim of a vicious carjacking, but under Sam's sharp eye
the forensics tell a darker story. The ex-Ranger was
murdered, though not for his car.
Forced to confront
the burning memories and feelings about yet another loved
one killed brutally, Sam loses herself in the mystery
contained within Donovan's old notes. It leads her to the
untouchable Xander, a soldier off-grid since his return
from
Afghanistan, and then to a series of brutal crimes
stretching from that harsh mountainous war zone to this
nation's capital. The tale told between the lines makes it
clear that nobody's hands are clean, and that making sense
of murder sometimes means putting yourself in the
crosshairs
of death.
