The Pity Heart (The Nick Drake Mysteries)

The crash was no accident. The bodies are piling up. And the Air Force wants the truth buried. Vietnam veteran turned wildlife ranger Nick Drake is finally finding a fragile peace in the high desert of Eastern Oregon. But that peace is shattered when a fighter jet plummets from the sky. What looks like a tragic accident quickly turns into something far more sinister. When the pilot's body becomes the first in a string of mysterious deaths, Nick finds himself locked in a deadly showdown with an iron-fisted Air Force base commander determined to bury the truth. Outmaneuvered by military brass and hunting an invisible predator, Nick must turn away from modern tactics and look to the ancient traditions of his Paiute neighbors to track the killer. In an unforgiving territory where the terrain judges, Nick will have to weaponize his deadliest combat instincts once again—because in the High Lonesome, justice isn't granted. It's fought for. What readers are saying: ***** “Smart, thrilling, beautifully written page-turners... A stunning love song to a remote land.” ***** “Prose that crackles like the unforgiving setting, building to a climax as powerful as a force of nature.” ***** “A masterful blend of high desert realism, historical tension, and deep respect for Native American culture, lore, and mysticism.” ***** “The storylines are absolutely riveting, keeping me up turning pages late into the night.” ***** “Nick Drake is wonderfully complex, gritty, and straight to the heart. A man to run the river of life with!”
