Buckner looked into the wagon bed at the body, which now lay on its back, one bold onlooker having turned it to facilitate the viewing. He nodded in agreement. His lips twisted in disgust, and he found himself wondering again why he had taken a job that required him to look at the bodies of people dead by violence.
James Buckner, the new police chief of Corinth, Missouri, must root out corruption and incompetence in his department, hire new officers, and avoid the pitfalls of small-town politics. When a boy playing hooky from school discovers a woman's body under the snow at the train station, Buckner drops everything else to focus on this startling development.
During his investigation, he relies on the help of his friends, Dr. Jeff Peck, black saloonkeeper Elroy Dutton, and the attractive vice-principal of Corinth High School, Judith Lee. Buckner discovers the dead woman is a local farmer's mother, but he faces red tape when the county sheriff warns him not to go out of his jurisdiction in questioning potential suspects. However, it's when Buckner hires two black police officers in the strongly Southern town of Corinth that he faces potential career suicide.
Can Buckner find the murderer and save his job before racial tensions explode?

Cold in Death
Tenth book in Kay Hooper's Bishop/Special Crimes Unit series about a group of FBI psychics that solve serial killer crimes. Dani Justice returns to her hometown of Venture, Georgia to spend time with her twin Paris, following the sister's ugly divorce. Both of the twins have psychic abilities. Dani can dreamwalk, allowing her to see the future, and Paris can control electricity. There are grisly murders in Venture, by a serial killer the SCU has tracked from Boston. Women from the small town are missing and the remains of some are chopped to bits and displayed to leave a message. The local Sheriff, Mark Purcell, was once Dani's sweetheart, and is open to the SCU's unconventional investigation. Dani is wracked with guilt as she is unable to interpret her recurring dream that an SCU Agent is kidnapped, imprisoned in the basement of a burning building, with the serial killer setting a trap for Bishop and his agents. I felt that the character development was weak in this one, with too much focus on the identity, motives, and powers of the killer. The continuous revisitation of Dani's morphing dream was tiresome.
