by Andy Ivey (Author)

"A small-town thriller with the grit of Yellowstone and the layered intensity of The Wire." - Reedsy Discovery

Horsehead Crossing, Texas, solves its problems quietly, with unspoken consequences. Tacy Vernon learned this the hard way, and when she goes missing, her boyfriend Chase Haven must learn it too. When Tacy clashes with the town's bombastic mayor and uncovers a corrupt airport deal, she becomes a reluctant whistleblower - and a target of the powerful Baxter Whitey family. After she vanishes, Chase embarks on a perilous quest to uncover the truth.
