Mick Hardin, a combat veteran now working as an Army CID agent, is home on a leave that is almost done. His wife is about to give birth, but they aren't getting along. His sister, newly risen to sheriff, has just landed her first murder case, and local politicians are pushing for city police or the FBI to take the case. Are they convinced she can't handle it, or is there something else at work? Mick, with his homicide investigation experience and skill at staying under the radar, delves into the investigation, dodging his commanding officer's increasingly urgent calls while attempting to head off further murders. And he needs to talk to his wife. The Killing Hills is a novel of betrayal -- sexual, personal, within and between the clans that populate the hollers -- and the way it so often shades into violence."-- $c From publisher's description. 500 $a "A Mick Hardin novel" -- From cover. 500 $a Includes an excerpt of Shifty's Boys. 500 $a Series numeration from Goodreads.com. 650 0 $a Veterans $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Government investigators $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Absence without leave $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Sheriffs $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Murder $x Investigation $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Marital conflict $v Fiction. 650 7 $a Absence without leave. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00794696 650 7 $a Government investigators. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00945386 650 7 $a Marital conflict. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01010071 650 7 $a Murder $x Investigation. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01029788 650 7 $a Sheriffs. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01115838 650 7 $a Veterans. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01165710 651 0 $a Kentucky $v Fiction. 651 7 $a Kentucky. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204494 655 7 $a Detective and mystery fiction. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01726581 655 7 $a Fiction. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01423787 655 7 $a Thrillers (Fiction) $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01726755 655 7 $a Mystery fiction. $2 gsafd 655 7 $a Suspense fiction. $2 gsafd 655 7 $a Thrillers (Fiction) $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Detective and mystery fiction. $2 lcgft 830 0 $a Mick Hardin ; $v 1 941 $a 2 952 $l NYPE343 $d 20240217010426.0 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231117030906.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=F17755F21DF111EDA8BEF4A423ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
