dellani said: Ben Whitekiller, notorious fugitive, returns to the small Oklahoma town he ran from 25 years ago. Wanted for a triple homicide, he's been on the run and suddenly decides to come back and turn himself in. What really happened that night? Why does Ben claim he can't remember? It's up to rookie officer Dan Hook to discover the truth. With the help of a beautiful and vivacious redhead, Dan solves the case that has baffled the police for longer than he's been alive. Barnhill's style is easy to read, but his plot has more twists and turns than a mountain road. I enjoyed the thrilling ride from start to finish. Why did Ben Whitekiller return after 25 years on the run? Wanted for 3 murders, including that of his wife, he comes back to town to turn himself in. Dan Hook, rookie police officer cuffs Ben and in so doing, steps into a strange series of events whose roots are older than he is. Soon, however, he begins to see that police accounts of those murders might not be quite what they seem. It's a hard book to put down! Excellent!
