"...a writer not to be overlooked." ~Tony Hillerman
When Roni Mayfield was nine,
the ground gave way under her feet as the mine shaft collapsed, trapping
her in the damp rot and cold dirt. Now a grown-up big city reporter, unearthing
other people's trauma, she still fears the dark--or what was in it.
Some memories never fade.
Roni escaped the stigma of
being the outsider in an isolated Nevada mining town, but a desperate plea from her childhood
mentor, Carolyn Holt, drags her back to Eagleton where memories should be
buried, and outsiders couldn't be trusted. Roni is the only one Carolyn
dares trust. Both were outsiders. But Roni is too late. Carolyn killed herself,
according to the local sheriff--end of story. Not for Roni.
Carolyn is dead. But her son
isn't. Eleven and alone in the aging Victorian house at the edge of town,
he hides in the attic leaving only under the cover of night, while a
killer stalks.
In Eagleton, Nevada, when Roni digs up details about a devastating
tragedy twelve years ago, no one is safe. Everyone has a motive. In this town,
what you know...can kill you.

I love this book! Carol Davis Luce gives readers an intriguing collection of quirky, detestable, and sexy characters in a small-town location where "misunderstood" thrives. This is my favorite of her suspense novels.
