Summary Joining his partner Tessa on a trip to Arizona, Vermeulen experiences the the country's messy immigration policies. A skeleton found near the border brings him face to face with a killer.
"Expecting a little down time, Vermeulen joings his partner Tessa Bishonga on a research trip to the US/Mexican border in Arizona. Instead he is drawn into the investigation of a murdered skeleton found in the Sonoran desert. The dead man's notebook contains Vermeulen's phone number. The local authorities are looking for evidence of trafficking networks and interrogate Vermeulen. He has no choice but to dig into the case himself. As the two delve into the dangerous world of refugess and migrants, dark forces take notice. A killer, who evaded justice seven year earlier, sees an opportunity for revenge. Cartels aim to eliminate the interlopers. A right-wing militia wants to teach Bishonga a lesson. Set against tragic border policies of the United States, Vermeulen and Bishonga face their biggest challenges yet, and the threats aren't only coming from the criminals." -- provided by the publisher
