As Paradise Valley mourns its murdered rich, Detective Kari Blackhorse faces a chilling realization: each victim is linked to a resort built upon desecrated land. With time running out and deep-seated tribal legends at play, she must navigate a world where wealth masks wickedness and ancient spirits may hold the final clue.
