“Jance once again takes readers along a fun mystery ride with just the right amount of action and suspense. Brady is…a strong female lead character who is both relatable and realistic; Jance has done a phenomenal job of developing her as a character. When the author throws in her classic twist, it is something that no one sees coming.” —RT Book Reviews, 4 star review

In this latest installment, Cochise County Sheriff Joanna Brady has a lot on her plate. Pregnant and gearing up for a reelection bid, Joanna is managing multiple cases plus trying to be a wife and a mother to her college bound daughter and rambunctious five-year-old son. But when a personal tragedy forces her to the sidelines, she’s torn between the duty to her family and to the people she’s sworn to serve and protect.
Joanna’s decision between family and the force is made for her when a puzzling new case comes in over the radio: the bodies of two women have been found at the base of a nearby peak, known to Bisbee locals as Geronimo. Is this a terrible accident, a case of murder/suicide, or a double homicide? Tracking down the truth will soon demand every resource Joanna has at her disposal including help from neighboring law enforcement agencies and the Feds.
With very little physical evidence at the crime scene and no witnesses or leads to go on, the case gets murkier when its discovered that one victim was a local teacher and minister's wife, while the other was a brilliant microbiologist working towards her Ph.D.—two vastly different women with seemingly no connections to link them. It isn’t until Joanna and her deputies dig deeper that a startling picture of betrayal, jealousy and violence begins to emerge.
As Joanna and her team methodically hunt for answers, a knotty web of sordid relationships and malicious lies comes to light. And as they’ll all soon learn, sometimes it’s those closest to you that harbor the darkest of secrets.
