Damnation Falls (2007)
Randall Wilkes, his big-city journalism career in ruins, has returned after twenty years to Pilgrim's Rest, the Tennessee hill town where he grew up. He has taken on a lucrative but low-prestige writing job for Sonny McMahan, a former governor and Randall's boyhood friend, whose own career is under a shadow. Faye McMahan, Sonny's mother, is addled with age, imagining that her dead husband is alive and worrying that her son might be in danger.
Amid a violent autumn storm, Randall finds Faye hideously murdered, hanged by the neck from a bridge over the town landmark called Damnation Falls. Within days, another person connected to the McMahan clan is murdered in an even more grisly fashion.
And the bones of a third, long-buried murder victim - a young woman - have emerged from the earth. Before all the answers are in, more people will die, an oldscore will be settled, and the dead will finally tell their stories.

From Blood (2010)
Brilliant but troubled, Shannon Fairchild has abandoned her Ph.D. studies to settle into an unambitious life cleaning the homes of the wealthy in a California seaside community. When her academic parents are suddenly and horrifically murdered, Shannon discovers that they were part of the radical anti-war movement of the 1960s and begins to suspect that their killer’s motive may lie in their past. She soon finds that they were friends of Diana Burke and John Paul West, two of America’s most wanted fugitives, anti-war militants who went underground after a fatal bombing in 1968 and never resurfaced. Propelled by her mother’s dying words – "Find them and warn them" – Shannon sets out on a perilous mission to track down the couple and tell them that someone is after them – someone much more dangerous than the FBI. Her search, which follows their trail across western America, takes Shannon into unexplored territory when she discovers an unexpected personal connection to Burke and West. As she unearths long-buried secrets while trying to stay one step ahead of a shadowy killer, she feels the passions of the tumultuous Sixties being reborn, and she now knows that nothing is more dangerous than someone willing to die for a cause.
