A troubled detective confronts her past in the aftermath of a brutal shooting. After thirteen years in prison, a good cop walks free while, deep in the forest, on the altar of an abandoned church, a body cools in pale linen... This is a town on the brink. This is Redemption Road. "Heart-wrenching...haunting...an extraordinary novel in which the human heart proves the most confounding mystery of all."--Providence Journal
