When Judge Rosswell Carew makes the gruesome discovery of two corpses on a river bank in the Missouri Ozarks, he’s plunged into a storm of deadly secrets that threaten both him and his fiancee, Tina Parkmore. Unsatisfied with the way the authorities are conducting the investigation, Rosswell, who’s always nurtured a secret desire to be a detective, teams up with an ex-con, Ollie Groton, to solve … solve the case before the killer can murder again. Rosswell uncovers a maze of crimes so tangled that he must fight his way to a solution or die trying.

One of the worst books I’ve ever read. A book about nothing with no conclusion!
This is the first book that I’ve read by Bill Hopkins & he left me hanging. Hope he continues the story.
I couldn’t get beyond a few pages. Just didn’t grab my attention like I’d hoped.
I tried very hard, but I just could not get into story. Too many quirky characters.
I thoroughly enjoyed this book. It was entetaining yet had an interesting twist. The main character was delightful and I can’t wait to read the second book.
Enjoyed very much.
Excellent, fast moving book. I have read two Bill Hopkins books, both very good.
Slow
Just a little slow at first but speeds up and ends up a very enjoyable read.
Loved it
