Publisher Comments:

Carl Herbold enjoys being bad. After all, he is terrifyingly good at it. Stimulated by violence, he and his brother, Cecil, had easily graduated from juvenile delinquents to full-blown killers. And Carl, now serving a life sentence in an Arkansas penitentiary, carries out a daring escape with a fellow inmate and is on his way back to where he began - Blewer County Texas. Anna Corbett had been widowed right before her son was born. Beset by debt, deafness and personal tragedy, she faces the toughest challenge of her life - holding on to the ranch that is her son's birthright - unaware that she is at the center of Carl Herbold's vengeful plan... Along with Ezzy Hardge, a retired lawman, who is haunted by the one crime he sacrificed everything to solve but could not... And drifter Jack Sawyer, the seemingly easygoing cowboy whose past is shrouded in mystery. Carl Herbold's prison break draws them inexorably toward a day of reckoning: Ezzy, an over-the-hill peace officer seeking redemption; Jack, a man stalked by dark secrets he can no longer outrun; and Anna, a beautiful woman locked in silence and self-imposed isolation. All must grapple with their own demons before their tumultuous confrontation with a diabolical killer.

Synopsis:

Convicted killer Carl Herbold's escape from prison sets into motion two seemingly unrelated events: the reopening of an unsolved murder case, and the unheralded arrival of drifter Jack Sawyer at an East Texas cattle ranch, home to Anna Corbett, a deaf widow, her young son, and her father-in-law. As Carl gets murderously closer to his ultimate destination, it becomes clear that the one who holds the key to Anna's self-imposed silence and the mystery that connects them all is the apparent stranger — Jack Sawyer.
