Things should never be possible for Scottsdale private eyes Lena Jones. Her partner in Desert Investigations, Jimmy Sisiwan, is giving for a moneyed wife and a job at Southwest Microsystems, and her old captain at the Scottsdale Police force Department is off to his home in Brooklyn. In the mean time, she's doing security for Warren Quinn, director of the documentary film about the American World Warfare II camp for German POWs at Arizona's Papago Playground, that some prisoners once escaped. One making it through escapee, Käpitan zur See Erik Ernst, a man now in his nineties and restricted to a wheelchair following a boating accident, has just been murdered. What's more, the man's Ethiopian caregiver begs Lena to clear him as a think in the murder. Lena, experienced in probing the past for answers to the central unknown of her own life - who's she? - discovers that after their daring Holiday Eve get away Ernst and two other POWs got hid out in Arizona's strong Superstition Mountains. Close by on Christmas evening, a plantation family, the Bollingers, had been slaughtered. A jury didn't convict the only survivor, the teenage child, despite some suggestive evidence. What might Chess Bollinger know about Ernst - and vice versa? And how much can Lena trust filmmaker Warren Quinn, either as a customer, a witness, or a lover? In this complex, stunning case predicated on real Arizona history, Betty Webb spins another evocative, haunting account in her Lena Jones unknown series. Betty Webb worked well as a journalist and bases her mysteries on experiences she protected as a reporter. She presently demonstrates to creative writing at Phoenix College or university.
