Allie finds her contact with a bullet in his brain--and a government-issued Colt in his pocket. Suddenly Allie has a killer on her trail, and the computer disk he killed for burning a hole in her pocket. For Allie, it's a cross-country journey throught the Cascade Mountains to the winding back roads of the Montana and into the darkest corners of a country's secret history. Because somewhere between the killing fields of Vietnam and the wide-open heartlands of America, a horrifying truth is buried. A truth about a people, a war, and one woman's past. A truth Allie may not survive...This is Jenny Siler's first novel. A very exciting thriller.
