Publisher Description

It looks like just another car crash: a head-on collision on a lonely stretch of desert highway that leaves one driver dead. Yet Tom Valle, the local newspaperman assigned to the story, is damned good at spotting lies. He should know—once a star reporter at America’s most prestigious daily, he was disgraced after being caught spinning columns of lies and exiled to the smallest town paper that would have him.



Seeking personal redemption and the resurrection of his career, Valle investigates a trail of cover-up, fraud, and murder stretching back for decades. But the path of corruption is so dark, Valle wonders if this story will redeem him, or kill him.

"This book was not quite as good as others written by this author, but I still enjoyed it. A newspaper reporter covers the scene of a car crash and discovers a conspiracy that will keep your heart racing."
