Teardrops of Lake Tawakoni

Detective couple Loretta and David Smitty abandon city crime for rural Quinlan, Texas—until Lake Tawakoni yields a corpse carved with a teardrop, the first in a string of ritual killings. As meth addiction grips the town and rumors of a vigilante grow, they follow cryptic journals in a lakeside cabin, uncovering hit lists, photographs, and ties to Sheriff Willis’s wife, Martha. Teardrops of Lake Tawakoni is a fiercely atmospheric thriller of justice, obsession, and small-town sin.
