Grand Canyon Sacrifice

"This is a top-notch read. Graham delivers a glorious portrait of one of the most compelling landscapes on earth--a place that can kill just as easily as it thrills."
--William Kent Krueger

It should have been a perfect trip for archaeologist Chuck Bender: stunning western landscapes, quality time with his new family, and a paid gig doing survey work for Grand Canyon National Park. Still reeling from a whirlwind romance and adjusting to life with two young stepdaughters, Chuck stumbles into a deadly struggle that forces him to reckon with his past as he suddenly faces every parent's worst nightmare: a missing child.

In this special tenth anniversary edition of the first book in the National Park Mystery Series, Grand Canyon Sacrifice brings the rugged beauty and ongoing cultural fissures of the West vividly to life.
