When the co-founder of a pharmaceutical giant is found dead on the slopes of Jackson Hole, his partner is accused of murder and hires Mary MacIntosh to defend him.  What she uncovers sends shock waves through the community.  Caught in an accelerating tempest of secrecy and lies, Mac battles to save her client's freedom; yet, betrayed on all sides, she finds herself fighting not only for her client but also for her life.

Praise from WRITER'S DIGEST for Maureen Meehan Aplin's previous Mary MacIntosh books:

PANDEMIC PREDATOR: "Wow--good beginning, really jumps into the action. . . a wide-ranging, intriguing book."

SNAKE RIVER SECRET: "The structure of the book reminded me of the old Perry Mason novels, in which the legal staff itself is involved in the case personally. . . . Some very clever manipulation of clues, evidence, and trial procedure makes this a very good mystery."

DYING TO SKI: "(The)dialogues are brisk and realistic. A very intriguing premise. An excellent eye for physical details."
