Publisher's Synopsis
When a robbery goes horribly wrong in a small town on the plains of Oklahoma, the end result is ultimately not one but two men dead. Gayla Early claims to know who did the first killing but now she's wanted for the second ... and her supposed victim is one of the most powerful men in the county. Albert Raeder may be dead, but he wields power from the grave thanks to the good-old-boys he left behind. His buddies are going to make sure someone pays for his death. And Gayla looks good for taking the fall, since she knows no one in town, until a crotchety old recluse and a Viet Nam vet-turned-sheriff take her under their wing. The result of their unlikely alliance will change all their lives forever.
