1. All Debts, Public And Private
How far will you go when betrayed by people you thought you knew?
An inexperienced sheriff working his first kidnapping. A lottery-winning grandmother determined to handle things in her own savage way. And the ruthless party-girl in the middle of it all.
Sheriff Billy Keene is in way over his head. He knows it and so does everyone else in the small town of Caulfield. So when the spoiled granddaughter of a local-lottery winner is kidnapped, everyone is telling Billy how to do his job. Or, worse, not telling him anything at all.
Newly-rich Arlita Hardy’s certainly not saying much and why should she?
Rather than leave her granddaughter’s life in the hand’s of a lawman as green as Billy, Arlita decides to use her money and a local thug to rescue her granddaughter — and punish the kidnappers. And in the middle of it all: Sharla Ricketts.
As usual, she’s drinking and drugging, playing one side against the other and lying to the liars. But Sharla’s life has gotten out of hand since we last saw her in Getaway. She doesn’t realize that this time all her craziness may cost her more than she’s willing to pay.
With time running out and the meth-head kidnappers growing more brutal each day, Billy scrambles to be the first to find Arlita’s missing granddaughter. But Billy’s always a step behind Arlita…and his next step might just get him killed.
2. Broken Heartland
Billy Keene digs into a bizarre and brutal case.
Sheriff Billy Keene’s still learning on the job–and learning dark secrets about the colorful people in his small, odd hometown of Caulfield.
Racist vandalism (correctly spelled, which passes for a solid clue in Caulfield) pops up after more than a few golfing buddies trade in their first wives for mail-order brides. So when one of the foreign brides is viciously attacked, Billy’s unsure — Is he investigating a hate crime? Or a crime of passion?
With his own love life in chaos – and his life-life in the cross-hairs – Billy discovers that intense passions of all kinds can push people to commit acts of heartbreaking kindness and unspeakable brutality.
3. The Grifted Girl
She’s twice as smart. They’re twice as ruthless.
Their teacher refers to them as grifted—intellectually gifted but very much at-risk high school students.
After Valerie Aguilar, an exceptionally bright, exceptionally rebellious teenager, makes a fool out of Sheriff Billy Keene during a classroom visit, Billy – barely a grownup himself – questions what he has to offer this younger generation coming of age in his beloved, if twisted, Caulfield.
Then, while investigating an assault, Billy hears whispers about Doyle and Ionia Ikey. The Ikeys run the town’s roller skating rink, video arcade, outdoor paintball field…and, rumor has it, lure vulnerable teens into their crime ring. Unfortunately, Billy has absolutely zero proof to move against them.
After Valerie refuses his help and gets herself deeply entangled in the Ikey’s crooked schemes, Billy discovers there’s no line he won’t cross to protect the girl. But the Ikeys? They want to make sure the girl’s gone for good.
