Synopsis

Since the Gold Rush, California prospectors have siphoned off the waters of isolated Tufa Lake, exposing the fragile, otherworldly mineral formations of the lake basin. Now a local environmental group seeks to block the latest incursion by developers—a massive mining operation funded by TransPacific, a US-Hong Kong interest that seems to be behind a series of break-ins, disappearances, and shady land deals. Into this stark, lunar landscape treads San Francisco PI Sharon McCone, searching for a local eccentric now missing after a suspicious land deal. When the bullet-ridden corpse of an investor surfaces in the lake’s silvery waters, McCone finds herself on a twisted trail that leads to San Francisco and then back to where it all began—the eerie desert mesas where a murderer prepares to kill again.

Goodreads review by SuperWendy

#11 in the Sharon McCone series works best as a mystery if you're completely ignorant of later books in the series. The misdirection involving a secondary character would just play better. I liked this one, but wasn't in love with it. The environmental mystery angle just didn't grab me as much, espe......more

Goodreads review by Carolyn (in SC) C234D

This is such a good series. McCone investigates the murder of a man involved in a gold mine scam. (She meets Hy Ripinsky in this one.)......more

Goodreads review by Vanessa

I love this series, but this is not one of the best. The positive aspects are the intricate mystery, interesting characters, and the introduction of Hy Rapinski. Like most of these books, I didn't figure out the mystery until the end, and that's one of the things I love about all the Sharon McCone b......more
