Playground for the rich, arena for the powerful, graveyard for the unluckyâwelcome to Palm Springs!
For some, itâs the pleasure capital of the world. For other, itâs a city of last chances, a paradise on the edge of the desert. For soon-to-be-ex-cop Lynn Cutter, sweating out a disability pension, it could become a point of no return.
As a rule, Cutter wouldnât give a private investigator the time of day, but Breda Burrows is the exception to every rule. Sultry, blue-eyed, long-legged, and tough as nails, Breda can be very convincing, and sheâs convinced Cutter to be her guide through the glittering netherworld of Palm Springsâan explosive mix of silicone, Geritol, old money, and murder.
The trail begins with the monied socialite wife of a philandering husband. The wife doesnât care about her husbandâs infidelity, but she does want to know why heâs made a secret depositâat a sperm bank. What Cutter wants to know is the identity of the strange, violent man hubby is meeting in the desertâa man known only as the fugitive.
