A body burns in the desert... Does the boy who found it know more
than it seems? Sal Prentiss, orphaned and burdened with a terrible
secret, just wants a place to belong. Sal lives with his uncles on
a desolate ranch in the hills, and finds himself at the centre of a
brutal murder mystery when he discovers the body of his maths
teacher, charred almost beyond recognition, half a mile from his
uncles' compound. In the seven months he worked at Lovelock's
middle school, the quiet and seemingly unremarkable Adam Merkel had
formed a bond with Sal and was one of the few people to look out
for the boy. Nora Wheaton, the school's social studies teacher,
sensed a kindred spirit in Adam - another soul bound to Lovelock by
guilt and duty. After his death, she delves into his past for clues
to who killed him. For Sal's grief seems shaded with fear, and Nora
suspects he knows more than he's telling about his teacher's death.
