[Laura Winslow Mystery 06] • Shadow Play

A computer hacker and registered PI, Laura Winslow has seen death before, but it never looked quite like the apparent murder-suicide of a reclusive Navajo and his female companion.

A refugee from a violent world, Laura has become ensnared in an investigation she should steer clear of, joining her lover, policeman Nathan Brittles, in an attempt to make sense of a bloody puzzle where the pieces don't fit. Because the signposts on the twisted path to the truth warn of the impossible -- a demon, a skinwalker on the prowl -- as Laura Winslow follows a trail leading to the darkest corners of a gambling palace, chasing a phantom she cannot believe in ... until it's her turn to die.
