Book #6
Start with A Killing in the Hills. The first drug overdose comes just after midnight, when a young woman dies on the floor of a gas station bathroom. To the people of the small town of Acker's Gap, West Virginia, it is just another tragedy. It is sad-but these days, familiar. But then there is another overdose. And another. And another. Prosecutor Bell Elkins soon realizes that her Appalachian hometown is facing its starkest challenge yet: a day of constant heroin overdoses from a tainted batch. While the clock ticks and the bodies fall, Bell and her colleagues desperately track the source of the deadly drug.
