The Reckoning: A Mystery Novel

By Jana Deleon

Book Overview

A little girl goes missing and a sheriff will do anything to bring her home--even confront evil--in this classic tale of suspense from New York Times bestselling author Jana DeLeon.

In a tiny bayou town with far too many wicked secrets, the sudden disappearance of a six-year-old girl is a mystery Sheriff Holt Chamberlain is determined to solve. But teaming up with Alexandria Bastin is a complication he didn't expect. Nor is he prepared to collide with the dark side of Cajun culture--and his own troubled past.

The frantic search leads them to a place said to hold magic, an eerie island where Alex is also working her charm on him. At one time, he'd been forced to leave her brokenhearted. And now, dangerously close to the truth, he'll do anything to protect her from the evil that surrounds them--an evil that might hold the key to sending a little girl home....
