Among the Irish Travellers living in the Appalachian Mountains of Tennessee, no one forgets and no one forgives. And as former Marine MP Brynn Callahan finds out when she returns home, it's hard to bury the past when bodies keep turning up....
After an IED explosion abruptly ends her tour of duty, Brynn arrives stateside with PTSD and her canine partner Wilco--both of them bearing the scars of battle. With a mix of affection, curiosity, and misgivings, she goes back to Bone Gap, Tennessee, and the insular culture she'd hoped to escape by enlisting in the Marine Corps.
Marginalized and wary of outsiders, the Irish Travellers keep to themselves in a secluded mountain community, maintaining an uneasy coexistence with the "settled" townspeople of McCreary. When Wilco's training as a cadaver dog leads Brynn to discover a body in the woods, the two worlds collide. Soon it's clear that and Brynn and Wilco are in danger--and they're not the only ones.
After the police identify the dead woman, Brynn is shocked to learn she has a personal connection--and everything she's been told about her past is called into question.
Forming a reluctant alliance with local sheriff Frank Pusser, Brynn must dig up secrets that not only will rattle her close-knit clan to its core, but may forever change her perception of who she is...and put her back in the line of fire.

Sounds like a good mystery!
Yeah, and I like that it’s the first in the series.
Love your holiday header!
I like books with canine partners. I will check this out more closely.
Happy Reading!
Thanks!
I like dogs in books too, although usually the ones I read are cozier than this.
Hope you enjoy your new book and that your week has been good.
