About this audiobook

A single gunshot shatters a sweltering small-town night. The victim falls on the store steps; a drunk with a fresh-fired rifle is found nearby—proof enough for a lynch mob hungry for justice. But one stubborn sheriff won’t surrender his jail or his duty. Holding the crowd at bay, he sifts the scene for what doesn’t fit and lands on a tiny detail with enormous stakes: two spent shells for one heard shot. With tempers rising and time slipping away, he bluffs, bargains, and bullies his way to the truth, exposing a deadly frame-up and forcing the town to face the difference between vengeance and the law. Matthew Guldner’s taut performance captures the heat, menace, and moral courage of this classic, small-town whodunit—where the so-called “hand of God” is really the steady hand of reason.
