About the Book

If a park ranger saves someone from danger--the reasons not quite understood--are they entitled to secrets that can't be shared? High on a treacherous canyon wall, a man from the pueblo clings to a ledge. Furiously working to rescue him, Park Ranger Jack Chastain is nearly killed. Now he wants an explanation, and the man refuses to talk. Jack learns the secret revolves around a death sixteen years before, and a lot more is now at stake. While looking for answers, ghosts from Jack's own past threaten his new life in New Mexico. When protecting a place loved by many--a national park--competes with the appeal of the rich and powerful, short-term admiration can have lasting consequences. Jack Chastain is forced to choose. Play the suck-up game with the others or protect a Native American man with something to hide.A mystery in the tradition of national park thrillers and Southwest cultural who-done-its, the likes of Nevada Barr and Tony and Anne Hillerman. A great gift for lovers of national parks and action-packed mysteries. Buy now and enter the world Ranger Jack Chastain fights to protect.______________"What Grisham does for law and the courtroom drama, Mitchell does for national parks and the politics of land and preservation.

"An engaging mystery with strong charactes and a wonderfully authentic setting in the Southwest. Keep an eye on this nascent series." - Colorado Author's League, 2015 Award for Mainstream Fiction --Colorado Author's League, Awards Committee "Loved it! A mystery with strength and realism.

He's got a good series going." --Betty Palmer, Events Coordinator, Moby Dickens Bookshop, Taos, New Mexico "This was a fun read. The characters are believable, the rescue scenes and fire scenes ring true, and Mitchell worked in the agency long enough so he knows how things can go bad..." --Ranger Magazine "What Grisham does for law and the countroom drama, Mitchell does for national parks and the politics of land and preservation.
