Synopsis

When his wife finally left him and filed for divorce, Rick Fallon put his house up for sale and took the last two weeks of his vacation. Then he loaded his Jeep and drove straight to Death Valley, the one place he truly belonged. On his third day in Death Valley, Fallon comes upon a deserted car, and soon thereafter, the almost-dead body of Casey Dunbar. Having rescued her, Fallon soon learns what had driven her to give up on life and—his own life on hold—he resolves to unravel the twisted and dangerous strands of hers, a quest that leads him to the glitter dome of Las Vegas, among other destinations.

Goodreads review by Ed on December 08, 2008

I've read now at least three of Bill Pronzini's recent stand alones and came away a big fan of each.

The plots involve microcosms of the cosmic struggles faced by us all, with......more
