High Country Coverup: Rachel Myers Murder Mysteries

HIGH COUNTRY COVERUP is the seventh in Annis Ward Jackson's Rachel Myers Murder Mystery series. In the Appalachian Mountains of North Carolina, Gurney Styles sits in the Sheppard County jail, convicted and waiting to be sentenced for the stabbing death of a wealthy retiree. Styles' Melungeon wife, Dulcie, convinces Rachel Myers that her husband is innocent and Myers interrupts her August vacation to search for what really happened. With the aid of Detective Barnett, the reluctant detective delves deep into the private life of the widow and her slain husband. Myers learns a new lesson in just what a person is willing to risk to satisfy their financial avarice, and how easily a corrupt public official can manipulate the justice system.
