PI Matt Murdock and his partner Helen agree to protect a Sedona billionaire in this series that "leave s] readers eager for the next Murdock adventure" (Publishers Weekly).

The moneyed investors of Sedona, Arizona, are dropping like flies--or more accurately, like lead weights. They're falling down staircases and off mountainsides, decks, and hiking trails. And their eerily similar deaths aren't all these men have in common. They each have wealth, a weakness for beautiful young women, and a financial interest in Sedona Landing, a historic hotel in Oak Creek Village. They also shared a long history with Sedona Landing's chief investor, billionaire Axel Ackerman.

Fearing that he too will plunge to his death, Ackerman hires Matt Murdock and Helene Steinbeck to investigate. During his climb to the top of the heap, Ackerman crushed scores of rivals and broke many hearts. So, who among this crowded field of enemies would orchestrate such a byzantine scheme of revenge? To keep their client safe, Matt and Helene will have to be on their best game. But their last case in Taos took a heavy toll on Helene, causing a rift that could all-too-easily trip them up . . .
