false 2435807 3 From Booklist Sam Kincaid, head of the Special Investigations Branch of the Utah Department of Corrections, is summoned when Levi Vogue, chairman of the Utah Board of Pardons and Paroles, is gunned down, execution style, in his driveway. Concerned that a paroled perpetrator with a grudge may have killed Vogue, Kincaid teams up with Salt Lake City Police Department Lieutenant Kate McConnell to solve the crime and lessen the political fallout. The two think they have the case wrapped up, but they discover their chief suspect is dead, leading to a widening of the investigation as Sam and Kate uncover a cesspool of corruption in the prison system. Sam, a divorced father, quickly becomes a target, along with his aunt and young daughter. Fast pacing, plot twists, engaging characters, and an inside view of the prison system combine in this strong series debut. Sue O'Brien Copyright © American Library Association.
