Notes From Your Bookseller

Joshua Moehling’s debut is on solid ground in its writing and suspense. The opening gambit is simple – two teens go missing after breaking into someone’s house.“Propulsive” and “atmospheric” are two words that will alternate in your brain as you read this novel about a Deputy Sheriff, his secrets and the small town that holds even more secrets. It's perfect for fans of Moehling’s fellow Minnesota writers John Sandford and William Kent Krueger.
