Arizona sheriff Joanna Brady is back—and this time, she faces a Cochise County that’s more like murder-and-mayhem central.
Joanna’s juggling the demands of new motherhood, a husband who’s trying to finish his mystery novel on schedule, a mother who’s convinced her new husband—the county medical examiner—is working too hard and a rental property that’s been trashed by a long-gone tenant. It’s no wonder she falls asleep during town board meetings. But not even fatigue will stop her from doing her job.
It starts when a young woman who’s being harassed by an ex-boyfriend shoots to kill—only the man who broke into her apartment and is now lying dead on her floor is a total stranger.
Then an elderly couple drives their car off a cliff in the Coronado National Forest, and a mobile-home fire leaves one man dead and his wife and grandchildren homeless—were these cases accidents or something more sinister? To make matters worse, a thunderstorm knocks out power for miles around, and Joanna finds herself running damage control.
The last thing she needs is a cold-case mystery. But when receding floodwaters reveal two trash bags containing human remains, she pulls out all the stops to find the truth.
