Description
A body burns in the high desert hills. A boy walks into a fire station, pale with the shock of a grisly discovery. In the small Nevada town of Lovelock, a brutal and calculated murder rocks the community to its core. Local math teacher Adam Merkel's death has left a trail of questions. Who was this quiet man who formed a bond with just one student, Sal Prentiss? What secrets did he keep, and what led to his tragic demise? The truth about Adam's murder may lie closer to home than initially thought. As the investigation unfolds, it becomes clear that Sal's grief is not entirely genuine. Nora Wheaton, a colleague of Adam's, suspects that Sal knows more about his favourite teacher's death than he's letting on. A complex web of relationships and motives begins to unravel, revealing a dark truth that threatens to destroy the very fabric of the town.
