I thought I had read everything written by William Kent Kuerger but, somehow I missed this one! I was able to get it on audio and once again, stayed up too late listening to it. Bo Thorson is a Secret Service agent who is assigned to protect The First Lady, Kate, while she is back in her hometown in Minnesota where her father is in the hospital after being found in his orchard with a terrible head injury. Not sure if it was an accident or an attack, the Secret Service has to follow every lead because it looks like The First Lady is in the cross hairs of more than one bad guy. ( )
