Sheriff Tom Jessup works to keep his county nice and safe. Unfortunately, things aren't staying that way. A questionable death in Whitman County takes Jessup out of jurisdiction to Spokane, Washington. He's following family blood, and it's led him to a double murder. The Spokane Police Department has their best team on the case, but they've just hit a roadblock. This leads them to a man neither trust. He's a questionably motivated officer who answers only to himself. Meanwhile, Jessup struggles to connect additional cases across county lines. As the deaths continue to mount, the four investigators race in opposite directions, each hunting a killer in their own way. Will they find him before he strikes again? Or will distance and department politics let a killer escape? The Blind Trust is the third book in the 509 Crime Stories, a series of novels set in Eastern Washington with revolving lead characters. If you like police procedurals filled with compelling personalities, you'll love this story.
