"Mesmerizing and haunting."--Lisa Gardner
"T. Jefferson Parker is the poet of American crime fiction, and The Room of White Fire absolutely proves why."--C.J. Box
In this stirring thriller from New York Times bestseller and award winner T. Jefferson Parker, P.I. Roland Ford must hunt down a soldier who is damaged by war, dangerous, and on the run. Roland Ford--once a cop, then a marine, now a private investigator--is good at finding people. But when he's asked to locate an Air Force veteran who's escaped from a mental institution, he realizes he's been drawn into something deep and dark. What he doesn't know is why a shroud of secrecy hangs over the disappearance of Clay Hickman--and why he's getting a different story from everyone involved. In a flash, what began as just a job becomes a life-or-death obsession for Ford, pitting him against immensely powerful and treacherous people and forcing him to contend with chilling questions about truth, justice, and the American way.
"A fast-paced, beautifully written thriller."--The Washington PostAuthor Biography
