Summary

When an elderly recluse discovers a corpse on his land, Officer Henry Farrell follows the investigation to strange places in the countryside, and into the depths of his own frayed soul. In Wild Thyme, Pennsylvania, secrets and feuds go back generations. As a policeman in a small township on the sparse northwestern border, Henry expected to spend his mornings hunting and fishing, his evenings playing old-time music. Instead, he has watched the dual encroachment of fracking companies and drug dealers bring money and trouble to the area. As a second body turns up, Henry's search for the killer opens old wounds and dredges up ancient crimes. In these derelict woods, full of whitetail deer and history, the hunt is on.
