Death stings . . .
In this gripping and intriguing mystery, part-Hopi cyber-sleuth Laura Winslow investigates a Mexican cartel that's involved in kidnapping and the black market.
When Laura Winslow discovers that her friend Meg has been kidnapped for ransom, she enlists the aid of Jo Kanakaredes, a combat zone reporter and photographer who was kidnapped herself but who escaped by walking out of the desert.
With the mystical beauty and danger of the Sonoran Desert as a backdrop, the two must discover the hidden motives behind the kidnapping and save Meg before she meets a gruesome fate. Hindered by the conflicting roles of the US and Mexican authorities as they attempt to work together, Laura and Jo are left to face both the horrors of the black market auctions and their personal demons on their own.
But as Laura and Jo learn more about this murky world of corruption and violence, they wonder if, in fact, Meg is with the cartel or whether she's encountered something or someone even more sinister?
