In the high-stakes world of oil drilling, danger lurks beneath the surface—sometimes literally. Charlie, a skilled rig supervisor, is drilling a joint venture well for Triple Play and OPI, where her boyfriend Ben works. But when she meets Ben’s boss, the hard-drinking Chuck, and his ruthless colleague Kim—jealous of Charlie’s expertise and relationship—tensions flare.

Then, tragedy strikes. A crew member on OPI’s well is kicked into a mixing hopper during a frac job, an accident ominously dubbed the "Kick of Death." As whispers of foul play spread, the questions mount: Who did it, and why?

When Charlie's well kicks, she finds herself battling not just the dangers of the job, but a murderer in their midst. Desperate for answers, she turns to her trusted friend George. Together, they must unravel the deadly mystery before one of them is next.

Dive into the second thrilling installment of Oilfield Mysteries—where betrayal runs deep and survival is never guaranteed.
