Following the critically acclaimed The Sniper's Wife, Archer Mayor returns with his 15th riveting crime novel in the classic Joe Gunther series.When heroin traffickers establish a vast and swift pipeline into Vermont, Joe Gunther's Bureau of Investigation is called in to stem the tide. But with pressure building from politicians and resentment burgeoning in the ranks of rival investigative units, Joe's team is forced to take wild risks: Sammie Martens must go deep undercover as a drug dealer; Lester Spinney must investigate a loved one; and Joe must make some agonizing choices as he works to reconcile a noble end with highly dubious means. With a "War on Drugs" in full swing within Vermont's borders for the first time, Archer Mayor's beloved sleuths will be driven to their very limits as they struggle to rid their community of a plague of epic proportions.
