Read Death Song Storyline:
The bushwhack killingof a deputy sheriff in Lincoln County and the brutal murder of the
deputy's wife in Santa Fe bring Police Chief Kevin Kerney and his
Mescalero Apache son, Sergeant Clayton Istee, back together in a double
homicide investigation, an investigation that is soon linked to a major
drug trafficking scheme and the cold-blooded slaughter of two women in
Albuquerque. With few clues, no known motives, and no suspects, the
investigation turns into a search for the son of the slain officer,
eighteen-year-old Brian Riley, who left Santa Fe under suspicious
circumstances before his father's death. Due to retire at the
end of the month, Kevin Kerney isn't about to let the murder of a police
officer's wife go unsolved on his watch, especially since the dead
woman was the sister of a dear friend; and crime scene facts strongly
suggest that the killer may have also ambushed the deputy sheriff.
Kerney assumes command of the combined investigation and calls upon
Clayton to find Brian Riley, discover what triggered the murders, and
give him the ammunition he needs to bring a multiple murderer to
justice. Death Song is McGarrity in full stride and at his best.
