In the latest novel in the Joe Court series, Missouri’s most dogged detective is forced to juggle small-town politics while solving a fresh murder with ties to a long forgotten case.

The St. Augustine County Sheriff’s Department is in crisis. Detective Joe Court doesn’t know whether she’ll have a job tomorrow, and she has no idea who her boss will be. She doesn’t even know who’s going to pay for the gas in her cruiser. None of that matters, though. She has a job to do.

The call comes in the middle of the afternoon. A young man walks into the public safety office at his college with blood on his shirt and a gun in his pocket. He says he shot a woman and left her to die, but he won’t say why.

The victim is beloved by those who know her. She spent a lifetime helping families in need. Her shooter had no reason to want her dead, and yet, dead she is.

She won’t be the last, either.

As Joe investigates, she uncovers ties to a murder eight years ago, but every clue and connection she discovers leaves her more baffled than before. Nothing makes sense.

Which was the point.
The case is a trap.
And Joe just sprung it.


The Girl in the Tent is the eleventh novel in the thrilling Joe Court series. She faces one of the most dangerous foes she’s encountered, and she’s doing it alone. Pre-order the book today and clear your schedule. You’ll want some free time.
