Miles of Destruction: A True Story of Oil, Greed, Lust and Murder

North Dakota’s Bakken oil fields held the promise of unimaginable wealth …
But for some, the price was paid in blood.
 
James Henrikson was a man driven by greed and a lust for power. A mix of charm and ruthlessness, he carefully concealed his criminal past while rising to oilfield royalty alongside his equally deceptive wife, Sarah Creveling. But their short-lived empire was fragile, a house of cards held together by lies. When it all began to crumble, James was blinded by rage and consumed by a need for revenge.
Kristopher “K.C.” Clarke, young, well-liked, and full of promise, vanished without a trace one cold North Dakota morning—his belongings left behind, his fate a baffling mystery.
 
Nearly two years later outside Spokane, Washington, Doug Carlile, a beloved family man with big dreams, was gunned down in his own home. 
 
The two victims had one chilling connection: James Henrikson. 
 
What followed was a high-stakes race to unravel a tangled web of conspiracy, murder, and betrayal. As federal and local investigators closed in, the truth was even more staggering than anyone expected.
