For investigative journalist Meg Witt, her stay in the east Texas town of El Dorado begins with the story of an underground railroad set in place to rescue the women and children from the clutches of the Mormon Fundamentalist men at The Yearning for Zion Ranch. She’s found one of the do-gooders and has been granted an interview by what she expects will be a compassionate soul, but instead finds a shrewish woman with the warmth of an ice cube tray. When within a few weeks of the meeting the interviewee turns up dead in the middle of Texas’ desolate landscape Meg finds herself befriending the dead woman’s husband to help him come to terms with her suicide.
But it wasn’t suicide! So, who killed Roxanne Harpy, the shrewish school administrator? When Meg goes to where Roxanne’s body was found her own life is at risk as the killer seeks closure to the crime.
Traveling with her husband and young son affords investigative journalist, Meg Witt, many opportunities to have some pretty interesting adventures. Meg is a strong, slightly sarcastic, thirty-something woman, who doesn't always use the most standard practices to solve mysteries, but she’s smart and savvy enough to get the job done as she juggles a husband, a son and a career.
