Injustice — Alex Collins

Previously published as Hidden in the Shadows by T.L. Haddix.

A man's secrets can be his downfall, a lesson Sheriff Wyatt Dixon knew well. Sworn to protect and serve, he's done just that for the people of Olman County, Indiana, for close to thirty years. He even sacrificed his first marriage on the altar of the office of sheriff. But when an extortionist's letter arrives, detailing a cold, hard truth Wyatt never thought would see the light of day, the weight of the badge he's worn so long feels heavier than ever.

Wyatt isn't the only one who receives a letter either.

Fighting a deep attraction to a woman he knows better than to become involved with, Wyatt's professional frustration grows as the investigation is thwarted at every turn by a duplicitous extortionist who has the citizens of Olman County in an uproar. Knowing his decision will affect his life and the sheriff's department for a long time to come, he has to make a choice: reach for personal happiness and risk it all, or walk away from the job that has been his life and the woman who could be his soul mate.

Injustice is the fourth book in the Olman County series. It was previously published as Hidden in the Shadows by T.L. Haddix.
