Savage Season (A Dalton Savage Mystery Book 7)

The scariest mask is the face you thought you knew.In the mountains of southern Colorado, autumn is a season of change—burning leaves, crisp air… and murder.On Halloween night, a retired couple is executed in their home with chilling precision. Two silenced shots. No sign of forced entry. No struggle. No apparent motive. Sheriff Dalton Savage has seen violence, but this feels different. Clinical, calculated, and intentional.Then another body turns up on the nearby Southern Ute reservation. Different victim, same ruthless method. As Savage follows the trail, it leads through twisted roots of Hawk’s Landing’s past. An old school connection, a land deal gone sideways, and whispers of a target that was never meant to be.Under pressure from a new hardline councilor with Ivy League credentials and zero tolerance for small-town politics, Savage finds himself, and his department, under the microscope. And with the Guardian group stirring up trouble, even longtime allies start to look like suspects.Someone made a deadly mistake.Someone else is cleaning it up.And Savage is running out of time to stop a killer hiding in plain sight.
