Synopsis 🖋
Amoret, Texas, 1982. Life along the border is harsh, but in a world where cultures work together to carve a living from the desert landscape, Blaine Beckett lives a life of isolation. Locals viewed him as a snob, an outsider. He seems content to stand apart until one night when he vanishes into thin air amid signs of foul play.
Noah Grady, the town doctor, is a charming and popular good ol’ boy. He’s also a keeper of secrets. The mystery of Blaine’s disappearance unravels and rumors fly.
Were the incipient cartels responsible? Was it a local with a grudge? Or did Blaine himself orchestrate his own disappearance?
Then the unthinkable happens, and Noah begins to realize he’s considered a suspect.

Review 📖
A suspenseful read that will have you guessing until the very end. Small-town life is captured through Herbert’s detailed characters. A new favorite mystery!
Noah Grady is an interesting character, especially with the “good boy” persona the town claims him to have. He quickly becomes one of your favorite characters as the vanishing of Blaine unfolds.
It was easy to get into this read and not want to put it down. I think mystery lovers will want this as their next read!
A major thank you to the author and @rrbooktours for the ARC in paperback. I’m in love with the cover. My review is 100% honest.
