Sawmill Springs

Gerri Hill • 2017

Overview

East Texas timber country holds more than sawdust and pine; it hides a string of unexplained deaths. Two seasoned investigators—one a local police sergeant, the other a state detective—are thrown together to untangle the clues. As they dig, old grudges, family loyalties and simmering prejudice push the case toward boiling point. Hill keeps the pacing tight, the landscape humid and the stakes personal, delivering a procedural that leans into character as much as crime.
