Detective Robicheaux is on vacation in the untouched wilderness of rural Montana with his wife, and his buddy Clete Purcell when two college students are found brutally murdered in the hills behind where the Robicheauxs and Purcell are staying. They quickly find themselves involved in a twisted and dangerous mystery involving a wealthy, vicious oil tycoon, his deformed brother and beautiful wife, a sexually deviant minister, an escaped con and former country music star, and a Texas vigilante out for blood. At the center of the storm is Clete, who cannot shake the feeling that he is being haunted by the mob boss he'd sabotaged and killed years before. Order now.
