Yet while Top runs the woods and countryside with his near twin cousin, Pepper, his Grandpa Ned--a small town constable--witnesses the spreading menace of a deranged killer. Out of his element, Ned reaches out to neighboring law enforcement and then the FBI.</p><p>Local news sources tag the budding serial killer "The Skinner," and the label is chillingly accurate. Beginning with the torture and killing of small animals, the monster quickly moves to humans, displaying their mutilated corpses as gruesome trophies, with no apparent pattern to grab hold of. Lamar County cowers. Meanwhile, Constable Ned is convinced that a vendetta is involved, and though the why of it is murky, he can no longer deny that something horrific and dangerous is heading for the Parkers. Now the law can't help him, and he must use whatever means necessary to protect himself and his family.</p><p>Is Ned up to the fight of his life?</p><p><strong>Set in the Texas panhandle and perfect for fans of C.J. Box and Craig Johnson, <em>The Rock Hole</em> is a riveting mystery that explores the worst--and best--parts of humanity.</strong></p><p><strong>Top 12 Mysteries of 2011 by <em>Kirkus Reviews</em><br>Finalist in the Benjamin Franklin Awards, Mystery</strong></p>
