Official synopsis Publisher
BOOK #2 in the bestselling WHICHER SERIES
John Whicher is a US Marshal, not long out of training – barely twelve months back from serving in the Persian Gulf war. In south Texas he’s working his first case when a multiple shooting on the US / Mexico border leaves five non-documented aliens and one American dead. The county decides to limit any inquest – money’s tight, deaths among illegals are notoriously hard to crack. But Whicher, in his first case, is not about to see justice denied.
