"Traumatized by a recent life-or-death investigation, San Francisco private eye Sharon McCone flees to her ranch in California's high desert country to contemplate how she wants to spend the rest of her life: running a high-pressure investigative agency and facing danger at every turn - or what? McCone turns to the serene desert landscape for answers, but deep depression continues to shadow her days and nights." "Even though she is determined not to investigate anything during her stay - and perhaps not ever again - McCone is drawn into a case concerning a troubled, highly secretive Native American woman and her dysfunctional family. Traces of violence at a deserted resort lead McCone across the desert and into Nevada, and finally to a remote and isolated ranch, where danger lies closer than she expects and where her future and life itself may hang in the balance. As she becomes part of an investigation involving murder, betrayal, and hidden identities, we see a new Sharon McCone - one coming to terms with her Shoshone heritage, knowing when to step back and when to move forward, gun in hand, ready for anything."-JACKET.
