Dangerous Undertaking

About This Book

Barry Clayton never planned to leave police work for the family funeral home in Gainesboro, North Carolina, but his father's illness forced his hand. At a graveside service, a grandson armed with a shotgun murders members of his own family and then shoots Barry, shouting a cryptic message about stolen land. Barry's investigation with Sheriff Tommy Lee Wadkins quickly reveals the shooting was no isolated family dispute. As another attack follows and local loyalties fracture, Barry is pulled into a wider conspiracy rooted in power, property, and buried truth.
