Nick Drake traded his past as a fish and wildlife ranger for the Sheriff's star, but Harney County, Oregon doesn't do election honeymoons. His tenure kicks off with a double homicide staged as a murder-suicide-a lie Nick isn't buying. As he digs into the crime's rotting core, the rookie Sheriff finds himself fighting a war on two fronts: a lethal learning curve with unproven deputies and a political recall designed to bury him. In the High Lonesome where secrets kill, Nick must strike first and strike hard. Because in this office, the only thing shorter than his term is his life expectancy.
The Yellow Hair delivers the trademark tension, unforgettable characters, multiple storylines, and cinematic settings that Dwight Holing fans crave.
