The Midnight Special Joan Klengler

Volume 7 of The Delta Mysteries opens with a deadly encounter on the banks of Lost Slough. Ten years later, Nick and Jessie's night out is interrupted by a desperate plea from the mother of a young man who sits on death row, awaiting execution for a crime he did not commit. As Jessie and Bodie are drawn more deeply into the search for the killer who walks free, Jessie's Lakota mother in law's warning becomes reality. "Be careful. When you poke the sleeping snake, he can strike before you know it."
