Overview
A dead federal agent and Lowcountry secrets stir up a hornet's nest. . . A Carolina Slade and Callie Morgan crossover! Carolina Slade's long awaited engagement is put on hold as Senior Special Agent Wayne Largo leads the manhunt for his missing partner-a naïve fresh recruit, who may have jumped the gun on an investigation from Slade's case load. When the agent is found dead next door to the jurisdiction of friend and Edisto Beach Police Chief Callie Morgan, Slade calls in a favor to add support for Wayne's investigation. Soon the two women are hip-deep in the secrets, black water swamp land, and farms of the Salkehatchie region. And anyone attempting to uncover those secrets gambles with their life.

Reviews
I was blown away by her writing. I could not put it down. It was fast-paced, intriguing and the characters she creates are brilliant. Now I know whenever I read either a Carolina Slade novel or a Callie Morgan novel, I am going to stay up way too late, but it will be well worth it! -Stephen Scarbrough, Amazon reviewer Ms. Clark tugs and pulls at her characters, bringing out (beating) both the worst and best in them. She has twisted this story with every page all the way to the totally unexpected ending! -Robin Mason, Amazon reviewer The power between Slade and Wayne are palatable. Feeling their independence conflict with their commitment to each other challenged me to think of my combat days in a new way. I think a chink in my PTSD armor fell and allowed me to be less judgmental of myself. Salkehatchie Secret is a must read. - Jim Great Elk Waters - author and reviewer for WeWan Institute and Society publishers
