Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

For more than thirty years, the brutal murder of a local Papago girl has gone unsolved.

Brandon Walker, once the sheriff of Pima County, Arizona, now a reluctant retiree, feels his life has been drained of purpose. Salvation, though, comes with an invitation to join The Last Chance, an exclusive fraternity of former cops and forensic experts who investigate unsolved murders.

The trail of a killer quickly leads Brandon into a world where evil hides behind a perfect facade. And now a forgotten homicide in the desert is only the beginning of the nightmare that ensnares a diligent ex-cop and his family — for Brandon is the only one who can unravel a knot of terror and obsession that will free a secret truth more frightening than he ever imagined.

Day of the Dead is a gripping journey into darkness and a return to the shadow world of the sensational New York Times bestseller Kiss of the Bees.
