Montana

“Outstanding . . . Believable action complements razor-sharp observations of people and scenery.” —Publishers Weekly, starred review Foreign correspondent Lola Wicks feels at home in the war zones of Afghanistan—so when her editor reassigns her from Kabul to a suburban stateside beat, she’s a fish out of water. To blow off some steam, Lola heads to Montana for some downtime at a friend’s cabin. But when she arrives, she discovers her friend has been shot dead in the hills outside her home. The murder is downright chilling—enough to make Lola want to hightail it back to Kabul. But as the first person on the scene, she’s forced to stick around. Lola figures the only way to get out of dodge quickly is to solve the crime herself. But she’s unsettled by the strangeness of the small mountain town, which is only magnified by the tensions between the locals and the people of the nearby Blackfeet Nation. Soon Lola’s doing things she never imagined, like leaning on her new friendship with a fellow reporter—and getting up close and personal with the local sheriff. The more she’s drawn deeper into the crime, the more connected she feels to this small community under the big sky—a bond which raises the stakes on just about everything. “Crammed with atmosphere and intriguing characters . . . A satisfying, hair-raising ride.” —Kirkus Reviews “A gutsy series.” —The New York Times
