When secrets are buried, bodies are next.
When a man from Dieter Bergheim's past shows up demanding payback for a decades-old betrayal, Dieter refuses to budge. Days later, a break-in at his brother's ranch leaves one man dead and a stash of cash exposed. And Noble County deputy Adam Cash is called in to investigate.
A combat veteran with his own ghosts to silence, Cash uncovers a pile of evidence: a mysterious hole in a workshop floor, a murder weapon with no clear owner, $1.4 million gone missing, and a suspect list longer than a Texas highway. With the past clawing its way into the present and the body count rising, Cash must track a killer who's getting bolder by the day.
But when the murderer breaks into his home, Cash has to face the truth--he might not be chasing the killer. He might be the next target.
A buried past. A stolen fortune. A relentless deputy. And a killer who's getting too close.
Murder Creek is the third gripping installment in the Adam Cash Mystery series, perfect for fans of Craig Johnson, C. J. Box, and gritty small-town thrillers with big stakes.
Award-winning Texas author Jeff Kerr delivers his most personal and high-stakes novel yet--packed with authentic characters, razor-sharp twists, and the spirit of the modern West.
