The Sixth Angel: A Murder Mystery (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798609424853)

A body in the mountains. A suspect in custody. A case that refuses to stay closed.

When the corpse of a young woman is discovered in the remote hills of Harney County, Oregon, Sheriff Josh Matthews is pulled from the longest night of his life into a case that seems open and shut. A suspect is found. The evidence is strong. But something doesn't sit right-and the sheriff knows better than most how easily the wrong story can take hold.

Gail Cruz, a seasoned journalist newly arrived from the big city, expected sleepy headlines and quiet days in the logging town of Burns. Instead, she finds herself drawn to the murder trial-and disturbed by the cracks no one seems to see. Her instincts tell her the wrong man may be behind bars.

Together, a weary sheriff and a relentless reporter will have to look deeper-into the unsolved murders of the past, and into truths long buried in the high desert. Because justice isn't always blind. And some eyes see what others won't.

The Sixth Angel is a slow-burn mystery and romance set in the modern American West-where love arrives late, danger hides in plain sight, and redemption may cost more than either is willing to pay.
