In the unforgiving landscape of California's Mirage Valley, Sheriff Izar Llewellyn has built a new life—and finally found peace. But when a violent killer escapes from her county jail, everything she's fought for hangs in the balance.
Ranger Preston should have been locked up tight, awaiting trial for murder. Instead, he's vanished into the vast terrain of Mirage County—a thousand square miles of desert and mountains where a man could disappear forever. Or stay close enough to settle scores.
As Izzy leads the manhunt with limited resources and mounting pressure, the FBI arrives with their own agenda: recovering a missing witness connected to a Las Vegas crime syndicate. Their demands clash with Izzy's investigation, and powerful local enemies seize the crisis to destroy her credibility. Political attacks, media scrutiny, and federal interference threaten to derail the search—while somewhere out there, Ranger is planning his next move.
When evidence suggests the fugitive isn't running but hunting, Izzy realizes this isn't just an escape. It's revenge. And the people she loves most are in his crosshairs.
With time running out, Izzy must outthink a desperate man who knows the county as well as she does—and has nothing left to lose.
A pulse-pounding thriller of loyalty, justice, and survival in America's most unforgiving landscape.
Genre: Mystery
