PI Lena Jones discovers that old sins never expire; they're still taking lives. When Lena's spouse, Pima Indian Jimmy Sisiwan, is caught in the remote town of Walapai Flats in northern Az, Lena closes the Desert Investigations office and rushes to his aid. What she discovers is a town up in hands over a fresh uranium mine located only 10 a long way from the amazing Grand Canyon. Jimmy's sister-in-law, creator of Subjects of Uranium Mining, has been murdered, however the opposing part has taken visits, too. Ike Donohue, the mine's public relations man, is available shot to death, which casts suspicion on Jimmy and his entire family. During her exploration, Lena finds not just a community decimated by dangerous mining practices but also a connection to professional John Wayne and the inexplicable deaths resulting from the 1953 filming of The Conqueror. Gabe Boone, a wrangler on that doomed film, is still alive, however the only person the older man will confide in is John Wayne's ghost. It's up to Lena to permeate Gabe's defenses and find out the decades-old tragedy that no-one in Walapai Flats wants to share with you. By delving in to the area's history, Lena discovers the reason why that high-ranking federal officials want those crimes to remain under wraps. Desert Wind, like others in Betty Webb's Lena Jones secret series, is based on the reality of true-crime conditions.
