Description
Murder has a way of finding Kim Jackson, even in the small mining town of Creede, Colorado. Forced to leave Durango behind and move on, Kim is now working in Creede's tax accounting office, trying not to get attached. Her life is simple and quiet until the day an unusual young woman, Laurie Beltran, walks through her door with a sticky tax problem. Laurie is pious and seemingly naïve, living as a pauper but possessing a secret fortune she seems afraid to touch-and there's a family tragedy lurking in her past. Kim offers to help her sort out her accounts, but what begins as a good deed quickly leads Kim into a dark web of greed, corruption, and lies.
When Laurie is arrested for the murder of a local businessman and father, Kim has her doubts. Without anyone else to help Laurie fight the charges, Kim steps in to investigate, throwing herself into the sights of the real killer. As Kim gathers evidence, she becomes convinced she knows who committed the heinous crime. Now she just needs a motive. But Kim has made one crucial mistake: she doesn't know who she's dealing with.
In this third book of the Colorado Skies mystery series, Kim discovers that she isn't the only one trying to escape her past-and that some people will kill to keep their secrets safe.
