From the acclaimed author of *In the Forest of Harm* comes a gripping psychological thriller of conspiracy, revenge, and a relentless killer whose reign of terror can only be halted by one woman. Assistant District Attorney Mary Crow returns to her childhood home in Little Jump Off, North Carolina, at the FBI's request, drawn back by a matter that is both professional and personal. Three federal judges have been murdered by a swift and skilled assassin, leaving only a black feather as a clue. The latest victim's execution was so brutal it has shaken even seasoned law enforcement. They are desperate to protect the next target, Judge Irene Hannah, but she refuses federal protection. It falls to Mary and hard-boiled FBI agent Daniel Safer to safeguard her mentor. However, the threat is closer than Mary realizes. When Judge Hannah goes missing, Mary embarks on a terrifying pursuit through the familiar yet perilous Carolina wilderness. There, a rogue killer and his army await. Mary must confront a fight for survival in a lawless realm where mercy is absent, and only a darker justice prevails.
