Synopsis

A Native American working on his PhD. A cop blinded in the line of duty. A chic resort's only hope to stop a killer cold in his tracks.

Once a land of Pueblo dwellers, the town of San Geronimo Peak, New Mexico, is prime ski country. P.I. Howard Moon Deer and ex–cop Jack Wilder are headed there to meet their first client—a former U.S. senator and the ski slope's owner. Instead, they find his body—and a murder case to solve.

Overrun with pleasure seekers, plunderers, and fanatics, San Geronimo has no shortage of suspects. But investigating the senator's two very different daughters, his political enemies, and his complex business dealings leads only to false clues. Then the senator's granddaughter is kidnapped—and the new detectives are plunged into a dangerous race for a little girl's life . . . and for their own.

Goodreads review by Trudie on March 13, 2023

Didn’t like the narrator. Didn’t like the misogynistic attitude toward women. Same old story: man killed, investigators find the killer, make women sex objects. Enough! Others can make murder mysteries interesting without continuing the same old crap of objectifying women and making it plain that on......more

Goodreads review by Janet on April 27, 2019

A decent mystery, although formulaic, and ok performance by Kaibo Schwab. What annoyed me is that this is one of the most bigoted things I ever listened to--never mind the digs against Republicans, Christians (most of whom are not crazed), American cars, people who eat at McDonalds, etc, but declari......more
