Walk the Wire

Amos Decker investigates a mysterious murder in North Dakota in Walk the Wire, uncovering secrets that could shake the community to its core.

In Walk the Wire, FBI consultant Amos Decker finds himself embroiled in a chilling murder case in the desolate Badlands of North Dakota. The discovery of a woman's remains by a lone hunter raises immediate questions. The circumstances surrounding her death are eerily reminiscent of the dramatic post-mortem scenes often portrayed on television, yet there is no sign of a morgue or medical facility nearby. This unsettling finding sets the stage for an investigation that promises to uncover dark secrets lurking beneath the surface of a seemingly quiet town.

As Decker and his partner, Alex Jamison, delve deeper into the mystery of Irene Cramer's death, they realize that the victim's past is shrouded in enigma. With little information available about her life and background, the investigation reveals a web of intrigue and deception. The town of London, North Dakota, is not just a backdrop; it is a character in itself, enriched by oil wealth yet riddled with jealousy and hidden rivalries that could lead to explosive revelations.

With the nearby Air Force Station potentially holding critical clues, Decker's unique memory and analytical skills come to the forefront. As he navigates the complexities of this case, it becomes clear that the secrets of this town could have far-reaching implications. Walk the Wire is a gripping addition to the Amos Decker series, blending suspense with a keen exploration of the human psyche in the face of tragedy.
