Overview
Her marriage over and career gone bust, Arly Hanks flees Manhattan for her hometown: Maggody, Arkansas. In a town this size, nothing much ever happens, so Arly figures sheās safe as the townās first female chief of policeāuntil the husband of one of the local barmaids escapes from state prison and heads for town. And thatās not all. An EPA official with ties to polluting the local fishing hole has suddenly vanished off the face of the earth.
As if two manhunts arenāt enough to contend with, a body has been discovered at the pay-by-the-hour Flamingo Motel, shot clean through the neck with an arrow. For some reason, Maggodyās residentsāall 755 of themāhave gone tight-lipped, stonewalling Arlyās investigations, and Arly hasnāt a soul to trust but her half-wit deputy. Now, as Maggodyās finest, sheāll have to show a little muscle and a lot of cunning to curtail the inhospitable mountain malice thatās overtaken her town. And sheāll have to watch her own back every step of the way.
