Book Overview
"Sure-footed plotting and easy banter make Ramsay's sixth Sheriff Ike mystery a brisk, entertaining read." --Kirkus Reviews

Ike has no wish to engage with them or their problems. He has killers to apprehend--in spite of the meddling by government agencies. But there is more to these murders than meets the eye. A dead CIA agent and a rogue handler could trigger an international incident....
