Badlands reunites bestselling authors Douglas Preston and Lincoln Child for their fifth Nora Kelly and Corrie Swanson thriller—a chilling, atmospheric mystery set in the stark deserts of New Mexico.

When the skeleton of a woman is discovered in the New Mexico badlands, FBI Agent Corrie Swanson is called to investigate. The circumstances are bizarre: the victim walked into the desert, shedding her clothes as she went, and died an agonizing death from heatstroke and thirst. Clutched in her hands are two rare “lightning stones”—artifacts once used by the ancient Chaco people to summon the gods.
