A missing Lakota girl. A gutsy woman sheriff. Lies. Secrets. Deception.
When a Lakota girl goes missing from the rez, no one cares...except Sheriff Kate Fox.
After dodging her meddling family's efforts to pair her off, Kate is settling into single life as Grand County Sheriff...until Deputy Kyle Red Owl's sister disappears. Shocked by the harsh realities of rez life, and after locking horns with a Lakota-hating sheriff, end-of-world preppers, and a greedy liquor store owner, Kate fears the worst.
Lies and old loyalties collide with new secrets. Secrets someone is killing to keep hidden. As an outsider in the good ol' boys world of sheriffing in the Sandhills, Kate is determined to save the girl society has abandoned. But can she find her in time?

Praise for the Kate Fox Mysteries: "Baker serves up a ballsy heroine, a colorful backdrop, and a surprising ending."--Kirkus Reviews
Shannon Baker is author of the Kate Fox mystery series set in rural Nebraska cattle country, and the Nora Abbott mystery series, fast-paced mix of Hopi Indian mysticism, environmental issues, and murder. Now a resident of Tucson, Baker spent 20 years in the Nebraska Sandhills, where cattle outnumber people by more than 50:1. She is proud to have been chosen Rocky Mountain Fiction Writers' 2014 and 2017 Writer of the Year. A lover of the outdoors, she can be found backpacking in the Rockies, traipsing to the bottom of the Grand Canyon, skiing mountains and plains, kayaking lakes, hiking, cycling, and scuba diving whenever she gets the chance. Arizona sunsets notwithstanding, Baker is, and always will be, a Nebraska Husker. Go Big Red.
