9781937054250 Crimes Of Redemption

When a robbery goes horribly wrong in a small town on the plains of Oklahoma, the end result is ultimately not one but two men dead. Gayla Early claims to know who did the first killing but now she's wanted for the second. Her supposed victim? The most powerful man in town, the same man she claims held her hostage for two years. Albert Raeder may be dead, but he wields power from the grave -- thanks to the good-old-boys he left behind. His buddies are going to make sure someone pays for his death. And Gayla looks good for taking the fall until a crotchety old recluse and a Viet Nam vet-turned-sheriff take her under their wing, an unlikely alliance that will change the lives of these three wounded souls forever.
