Summary
"A record heat wave suffocates remote rural Wisconsin as the local sheriff tracks down a killer hidden in the depths of the community in this atmospheric, race-to-the-finish mystery"--
Sheriff Heidi Kick has a dead body on her hands: a homeless young man last seen alive miles from the Bad Axe. The medical examiner confirms what Sheriff Kick has been experiencing in her own reoccurring nightmares of late: the victim was buried alive. As the relentless summer heat bears down and more bodies are discovered, Sheriff Kick also finds herself embroiled in a nasty reelection campaign, and as her family troubles made public. Leroy Fanta, editor-in-chief of the local paper and a Vietnam veteran, believes the homeless man might be tied to a reclusive man writing deranged letters to the opinions section for years. -- adapted from back cover
