Publisher Description

Return with New York Times bestselling author J.A. Jance to the red-streaked desert of Cochise County, Arizona, in her most memorable and stunning work yet

For Sheriff Joanna Brady and her 12-year old daughter Jenny, an innocent Girl Scout camp-out turns into a lethal game when Jenny and her tentmate, Dora Matthews, discover a murdered Phoenix woman.

Back at home, Joanna's main concern is helping her daughter recover from this terrible trauma -- even as she attends to the demands of a new marriage and a possible reelection campaign. But then Dora turns up dead ... and instantly Joanna's concern turns to terror. For if the killer is murdering potential witnesses, Sheriff Brady's beloved daughter may be next.

Quotes

  • “A devilish page-turner.” 

    — People
  • “Jance keeps things roiling from start to finish. With more than two dozen mysteries to her credit, the author has learned a great deal about pacing and it’s evident in this page-turner, which nicely builds suspense and throws in some nifty surprises as well. Jance’s sense of place remains strong, whether here in the beautifully rendered rural Arizona setting or in the rainy Seattle of her J.P. Beaumont mysteries.” 

    — Publishers Weekly
  • “The pieces of the mystery fall together in intriguing and convention-defying ways.” 

    — Booklist
  • “There are good times to be found in Paradise Lost. Jance, who mixes up a potion of teenage angst, jealous relationships, and murder, still demonstrates she can spin a good tale…She remains one of the best mystery writers in North American…You can almost smell the Arizona wilderness.”
