It's the Dog Days of August 1948 and all Deputy Sonny Watson is concerned with is beating the heat, that is, until he learns that his lifelong friend Riley Jenkins has been murdered.
In a shocking move the Sheriff of Cairo County, South Carolina puts Sonny in charge of the high profile investigation, raising questions about the Sheriff's motives and revealing everyone's complete lack of confidence in the young deputy.
Sonny is eager to find his friend's killer but along the way must face some realities about Riley, the Sheriff, the community he loves, and the wife he adores.
Riley's death leads Sonny on a chase that touches the community and one of the state's most prominent families. Somewhere along the way Sonny discovers more than he could have imagined and is faced with some tough choices that he's not sure he's ready to make.

Surprising!
Posted October 1, 2010, 9:41 PM EST: I am an avid reader, and was pleasantly and thoroughly surprised by this first-time author. Not only does he keep you guessing, but he manages to paint an image with each page, bringing his characters and this Southern town to life. Being a Southern girl myself, I can appreciate this even more. The characters were not only interesting, but believable. The twists and turns in the story line will keep you guessing, and Sonny will win your heart. Really looking forward to this author's next book! My only complaint? What took him so long to get published????
I was BLOWN AWAY! If you are a mystery fan, don't miss this one!
Posted September 28, 2010, 1:18 PM EST: I have to admit I was reluctant when I found out this was the author's first novel, boy was I surprised when I couldn't put it down. The story, the characters, the plot...they all grabbed me, not to mention that there is just something about a Southern story teller that can make you see what you're reading! I can't wait for more.
Highly Recommend
