Old Schoolhouse Road - Paperback

by Sarah Vail (Author)

In this riveting crime thriller, a shooter rocks a small-town school and vanishes like the wind. The sheriff calls the FBI for help. New to the profiling unit, Tim McAndrews is assigned to the team sent to the crime scene. When the evidence doesn't fit with a typical school shooter, Tim develops a theory that the unknown subject is an older man with military or law enforcement experience-an assassin, and maybe one of their own. But who would target high school teens for such a fate and why? It's up to Tim and the profiling team to find the shooter's identity despite interference from a brazen news reporter, an attention-seeking politician, and pressure from a powerful supervisory special agent in the FBI. As they pursue the killer, the evidence leads them to a dark and twisted world of illicit drugs and abuse, to an insidious motive for murder, and to villains they never expected.
