Synopsis
At the age of four, Lena Jones was found lying unconscious by the side of an Arizona Highway, a bullet robbing her of any memories. Now a private detective and scarred survivor of a dozen foster homes, Lena has vowed to find the truth about her childhood.But Lena s quest is interrupted when her friend, art dealer Clarice Kobe, is beaten to death in her Western Heart Art Gallery on Scottsdale s Main Street. Lena and her Pima Indian partner Jimmy Sisiwan first suspect Clarice s abusive husband, but their investigation soon reveals that domestic violence was far from the only problem in the dead woman s life.For all her money and beauty, Clarice had far more enemies than friends. Among them are a fiery Apache artist whose graphic work she once banned from her gallery and the daughter of an elderly Hispanic woman whose death was directly attributable to the gallery owner s greed. And Clarice s land developer parents are oddly untroubled by their daughter s murder.Lena s search for the killer brings violence back into her own life but does it bring her closer to solving her own personal mystery?
