In Rocksalt, his sister Linda the sheriff is investigating the murder of Pete Lowe, a sought-after mechanic at the local racetrack. After another body is found, Linda and her deputy Johnny Boy Tolliver wonder if the two murders are related. Linda steps into harm's way just as a third body turns up and Mick ends up being deputised again.
The dark, gripping, and propulsive thriller of murder and secrets in Rocksalt, Kentucky where little is as it seems.
'Excellent Kentucky noir - Offutt's third Mick Hardin novel is the best yet.' - Kirkus reviews
