Walk the Wire by David Baldacci

3.0

3 1/2 stars. Amos Decker and his partner Alex Jamison are dispatched to London, North Dakota, a previously dying town that has been reinvigorated by the ingress of the fracking industry. A schoolteacher at the local colony similar to Anabaptists has been found dead, and Amos and Alex are instructed to find out who killed her. Not knowing why the government is so interested in this seemingly small-town and nondescript woman, they investigate and get embroiled in tensions between the locals, and those between the locals and the frackers. I really love Amos Decker, but this has been my least favorite so far. There were way too many sub-plots going on that weren't necessary to the main plot, IMO.
