A forensic psychologist searches for a cold-blooded killer in “a fast-paced story (and) an entertaining ride through the mystery of death and life” (Michael Pettit, author of Riding for the Brand).
A popular mariachi singer is found shot and buried just south of Santa Fe, putting him in the jurisdiction of Detective Rick Romero and forensic psychologist Jemimah Hodge. It seems that the victim, a reckless womanizer, had an ego big enough to have gotten him killed. Was he killed by a spurned girlfriend or an angry husband? Or had the man gotten involved in something more sinister?
As the weeks pass, the trail grows cold, but Hodge and Romero refuse to give up the hunt. And the more clues they uncover, the more they find themselves in the crosshairs of a killer—in this mystery that delivers “heart-stopping action” (Patricia Smith Wood, author of Murder on Sagebrush Lane).
