Last ragged breath

Keller, Julia2015
Books, Manuscripts
To the struggling citizens of Acker's Gap, Raythune County, the proposition of a high-end resort just out of town seems like an answered prayer. But Royce Dillard, who owns a critical piece of access land, won't sign it over to the developers. Inherited from his father, who died a hero's death in the County's Buffalo Creek disaster of 1972, the plot represents a family inheritance Dillard is unwilling to relinquish. When the development company's sales manager, Edward Hackel, is found dead, the obvious suspect is Dillard himself. But with Dillard protesting his innocence in what seems to be an air-tight prosecution case, Bell is unable to shake the belief that not all is what it seems. When a person dies their last ragged breath will often tell the truth of what happened. Already distracted by a personal problem, will Bell be able to focus and figure out what that truth is?
