"Husbands and wives, secrets and lies . . . The brilliant new Milt
Kovak mystery"
When Mary Hudson is discovered on her kitchen floor, bludgeoned to
death with a meat tenderizer, Sheriff Milt Kovak of Prophesy
County, Oklahoma, and his psychiatrist wife Dr Jean McDonnell are
drawn into a murder investigation that is as intriguing as it is
chilling. It soon emerges that Mary s husband, Jerry, is a
polygamist, and the family belong to a church called the New Saints
Tabernacle. As Milt and Jean delve deeper into the church and its
customs, they soon become embroiled in a murky and mysterious
world."
Arresting a Blanton was always going to be bad news, but things are
about to get even worse for Sheriff Milt Kovak. Everyone in
Prophesy County knows that you don't mess with the dim-witted,
in-bred Blantons. So when Milt gets a call to say that Darrell
Blanton has shot dead his wife, he's expecting a rough ride.
Arresting Darrell and putting him in the slammer may have been
surprisingly easy, but things are about to get a whole lot worse.
Eunice Blanton, Darrell's mama, takes a dim view of her son's
arrest and decides to storm the Longbranch Inn where Milt's
partner, Jean McDonnell is hosting a bachelorette party for Holly
Humphries. With the women taken hostage, Eunice's terms are -
unsurprisingly - simple: release her boy or a hostage gets shot
every ten minutes. But there's a problem: Darrell has been found
dead in his cell, with not a mark on him...
