Ranger Philip Russell, a U.S. Park Ranger for a small island in the Pacific Northwest has stumbled across a dead body in the forest. Unsure if the dead woman is a local or someone from the mainland, the new female sheriff, who's got something to prove, has come to Rockfish Island to try to find out if the community has anything still to fear. Eager to help solve the mystery, both quickly find themselves at odds with each other. Philip, defending the people he's known his whole life. And Sheriff Lane, giving no one the benefit of the doubt...not even Philip. Together, the investigation progresses and both quickly realize that on this sleepy island not everyone is who they pretend to be...and somebody on this island may be a killer.

In book three of the series, dark deeds, intended to remain hidden beneath the cold waters bordering the island, have surfaced, shocking the small community and casting a dark shadow over its residents.Confronted with a blood-speckled rowboat and a waterlogged corpse, Sheriff Lane is desperate for answers, some of which can only be found on the mainland.Faced with limited resources and her lone deputy following another lead, Lane turns to Park Ranger, Philip Russell, who is more than eager to help investigate the mysterious homicide.The pair piece their findings together while trying to separate gossip from the truth and answer the most pressing of questions: Whose body was pulled from the icy waters, and who, in their tight-knit community, put it there?

A small island with big lies...Welcome to Rockfish Island. Once again, death has found its way to Rockfish Island's National Park, this time in the form of a terrible climbing accident. When Sheriff Lane discovers the victim has ties to an accidental drowning the summer before, she becomes suspicious the two deaths are linked and not accidents at all. Recruiting Park Ranger Phillip Russell into her investigation, the two begin looking into the past. Lane, digging into the life of the latest victim with her new deputy, Caleb Pickens, and Philip, befriending those who were involved in the prior death the summer before. It's not long before Philip becomes convinced Sheriff Lane is looking for murder and mayhem where there is none. But Lane, trusting her instincts and intuition, refuses to let the investigation fizzle out. Will the two deaths end up being a coincidence after all or will a murderer be unmasked?

You know what they say about assuming... Imagine seeing the face of a woman you had a first date with, only seventy-two hours prior, suddenly being plastered across the news, reported as a missing person. Not only missing, but potentially the next victim of a devious serial killer haunting your county? And what if, once the police are involved, the finger of suspicion points squarely at you? The last person to have seen her alive. Even more concerning, an armchair detective and her team, all convinced of your guilt, have taken it upon themselves to prove you're the hunted serial killer¿ and by any means necessary. It's SAFE TO ASSUME this would be torture for an innocent man or a serious threat to a guilty one. Either way, isn't everyone guilty of¿ something?

"A well-kept secret from the average tourist, Rockfish Island is the chosen destination for an all-inclusive corporate getaway with a fun-filled weekend of glamping and horseback riding planned, each guest expecting a good time despite mounting tensions and ladder-climbing aspirations. When a shot rings out in the early morning, the celebratory atmosphere dissolves, and Sheriff Lane, with Ranger Philip Russell in tow, must discern if the corresponding death is an accident, a matter of opportunity, or a murder for hire. With the main suspect hiding behind legal counsel and fingers pointing in every direction, additional theories abound when the victim's past life comes to light, with ties to the island surfacing within the investigation. Speculation comes close to home and forces Lane to ask... Exactly who was hidden within the pines? Is she seeking a killer among the visiting strangers or one within her own tight-knit community?" -- (back cover)
