  Jealousy and greed spark a bittersweet end—and new beginning—in the final Black Horse Campground mystery from the author of On a Dark Deadly Highway. 
   
   
    
  Running a campground has its ups and downs, and Corrie finds herself facing a cavernous financial hole. A severe drought has made the forest service put fire restrictions in place, meaning no campfires or grills can be enjoyed at the Black Horse. The drop in guests have Corrie worrying about the future—especially when it becomes clear that Sheriff Rick Sutton's malicious ex-wife is frothing at the mouth to buy the Black Horse. 
   
   
    
  Everything comes to a head when disaster strikes—and the Black Horse is engulfed in flames. What first seems to be an act of nature is quickly discovered to be arson, and after a dead body is found on site, officials suspect murder is at play. 
   
   
    
  Clues arise from the ashes that reveal a long-running conspiracy and well-protected secrets that will change Corrie's life forever . . .
