Publisher's summary

It is 1972, and Clay Dautry, a successful criminal attorney, has left Los Angeles under a cloud. He is returning to Kentucky's mountainous coal country to unravel a family mystery. For months he's published a classified ad, seeking to learn why his father killed a man in 1929. Even before he arrives people have begun to die. As he exits the train, Clay sees a mentally retarded black man in shackles. The man is Ortie, and he's shot a local businessman in a practical joke gone terribly awry.

Ellen Reames, a young attorney, stands beside her client as an angry crowd throws eggs. Clay and Ellen set out to solve two mysteries: how Ortie came to kill a local restaurant owner and why Clay's father killed a competing mine operator. Someone is determined to protect secrets that have lain hidden for more than forty years, and Clay and Ellen become targets of a deadly conspiracy.
