About this audiobook
Nina Reilly needs a fresh start.
In three years, she's taken on some of Lake Tahoe's most controversial cases and has turned her struggling
one-woman law firm into a thriving practice. Now she's ready to sort out her complex relationship with her
boyfriend, Monterey P.I. Paul Van Wagoner. So she's heading to the Carmel Valley, the place where she began
her career and where her estranged father lives. It's also a place of dramatic contradictions and hidden tensions,
of new wealth and old families. And, within days of her arrival, Nina is already feeling the heat, as a case of
arson exposes some of the darkest secrets of her hometown.
Two suspicious fires have already raged through the valley this summer, igniting suspicions of arson. When
a third blaze ends in a fatality, police zero in on a suspect: Wish, the son of Sandy Whitefeather, Nina's
ex-assistant. The dead man is identified as Wish's childhood friend, a troubled local auto mechanic who hated
the changes wealthy newcomers had brought to the valley. Nina and Paul are certain that there is more to this
strange case than meets the eye.
As they work together to clear Wish, new, more frightening questions are raised, and another fire is set. And out
of the flames a terrifying picture emerges: a community steeped in secrets and rage, a tangled history between
two men, and a killer whose motives are dark and wrenching.
