Lara and Vinny Jessup had a pleasant May-December marriage. It renewed his lease on life after having a struggle with cancer, and it rescued her from a poor first marriage. And then Vinny was found dead. Initially, the sheriff in Loomis County thinks that Vinny died when his car rolled over on the bad curve on Lookout Mountain. But then he finds a gunshot wound. Was it suicide, or was it murder? With a huge insurance coverage as her motive, Lara may have staged the death ... roughly it appears to the sheriff. Barbara Holloway is a trial attorney who tends to undertake difficult cases, but in every previous case she has had some fragment with which she could build a disagreement. She finds herself attracted to the Oregon desert to take on this case, associated with her associates: her colleague Shelley with her Barbie-doll looks, the inimitable detective Bailey Novell, and her father Frank. But the case itself is really as dead as the desert. Is there any defense whatsoever? Compelling and distinctive, this drama demonstrates anew why Kate Wilhelm is known as a master of the form.
