Description: "When three elderly men are gunned down over coffee at a local diner, the town of Acker's Gap is shaken. But a pattern of violence is taking shape that prosecutor Bell Elkins is becoming all too familiar with. Bell's daughter, Carly, a witness to the crime and desperate to prove that she is an adult, decides to help her mother work the case. As Bell's investigation unfolds, one thing is certain: the very idea of a simple way of life is coming to an end."--Publisher description.
