When a fire in an abandoned fruit stand in rural Lincoln County reveals the murdered body of a woman gone missing from Sante Fe years ago, Police Chief Kevin Kerney finds himself cooperating with his estranged son, a man he hardly knows, Deputy Sheriff Clayton Istee. While Kerney digs into the woman's past, hoping to find clues that will lead to a credible suspect, Clayton must unravel two more homicides that seem on the surface totally unrelated. As Kerney chases down clues that raise questions about the legitimacy of a highly regarded modeling and talent agency, Clayton works to discover the identity of a murder suspect alleged to have ties to prostitution and illegal gambling. Set against the backdrop of the high mountains of southern New Mexico, where gambling is big business and private sexual encounters for VIPs can be discreetly arranged, Kerney and Clayton must go up against the rich and politically powerful opponents who are willing to protect their reputations at all costs.

"This was a good read well developed, likeable characters. I have read other McGarrity novels but no other in the Kevin Kerney series. I will look for others." — Sandy (4 out of 5 stars)

" One of my least favorite of his. Even though it was Lincoln County and I knew some of the places he mentioned ... I didn't like the way it ended. Wanted more of a climax ... No pun intended. "
" Modern lawman mystery set in New Mexico. "
" It was pretty good. I liked how the title played with the plotline. It was nice and fun read. "
" This is the first of this series about Kevin Kerney that I've read. It was an easy, fun read, but not exactly "edge-of-your-seat" kind of stuff. I will try a couple more, though. "
" Not McGarrity's best effort "
" Still a good read, I don't know what it is about these that I like so much--sometimes an author just does something in a way I enjoy. Can I vague that up for you anymore? "
