Produktbeschreibung
Ancient prophecies and murder Three brothers coveted the title of sacred fetish carver for the Fire-Sky Pueblo. All are dead. Is it murder? Or the vengeful spirit of the god of fire and death? With only one child left to inherit, Police Sergeant Nicky Matthews fights to protect a vulnerable young boy with a gift that could cement his place as a leader of the Fire-Sky People-unless a killer gets to him first. Someone in the Fire-Sky police department is warning Albuquerque's most vicious drug gang of undercover operations on the Pueblo. Begging Nicky to help him find the snitch, her former lover-and New Mexico State Police Chief-barrels back into her life. But when the trail leads to her best friend, Nicky is torn between her loyalties and her job. The two investigations collide as fires erupt on and off the Pueblo. With the tension, heat, and body count rising, Nicky's actions take a reckless and dangerous turn, driven by elements outside of her control. She soon realizes the god of fire and death only appears to those about to die. And lately, she's seen him a lot.
Autorenporträt
Carol Potenza taught biochemistry before transitioning fully to a mystery writer. She loves the combination of her two careers because it gave her the ability not only to teach her students about the biochemical effects of poison, but also to use said poisons very creatively in her murder mysteries (along with other diabolical methods). She lives in the beautiful state of New Mexico with her husband, Leos, and extremely grumpy Chihuahua, Hermes.
