Rolling stone Wesley Crocker seems a harmless enough free spirit when Posadas County Undersheriff Bill Gastner offers him a lift on the road and spots him a free dinner. Crocker beds down for the night with his gear on the high - school athletic field. By morning, 13 year - old Maria Ibarra is found dead under the high - school football bleachers a few feet away and Crocker goes straight to jail. His account of how he passed the night is full of enough holes to keep him locked down, but meanwhile a background check on Maria raises troubling questions about her life...Compare to Michael McGarrity's Tularosa (Norton 0 - 393 - 03922 - 6 04/96 and mass market 0 - 671 - 00252 - X) and The Judas Judge (Dutton 0 - 525 - 94547 - 4 06/00).
