About this audiobook

Summary

Four women on the overnight shift at a Nebraska poultry plant share one terrible secret: they disposed of their dead supervisor's body before dawn. Renata Vargo, a divorced mother barely holding her life together, led the decision that bound them all. Now a quietly relentless county detective is closing in, and the cracks between the women are spreading. But as Renata digs into the dead man's finances, she discovers the real killer may be someone none of them suspected—and exposing the truth could destroy them all.
