Backwater justice

Michaels, Fern2025
Large Print
The small Oregon town of Mountain Valley seems like the perfect place to safely raise a family, away from the dangers of the big city. Vanessa's parents think so, until the day their 14-year-old daughter doesn't come home for dinner. An attendant at the local gas station mentions seeing a girl fitting Vanessa's description getting into a pick-up truck that he thinks belongs to one of the Spanglers. Everyone knows the Spanglers, the richest, most influential family for miles around. Patriarch Milton Spangler offers a 50,000 dollar reward, determined to quash any notion that his family might be involved. But as search parties fail to yield any clues, another young woman goes missing. Are these simply disillusioned runaways? Or does the Spangler family have something to hide? Myra Rutledge has honed her instincts over scores of missions, and the news stories about missing young women set her internal alarms ringing. She shares her concerns with other women of the Sisterhood, and they agree to look into the goings-on in Mountain Valley. But a small town like this can have deep secrets, especially when one family holds so much power.
