Publisher's summary

On a desolate road in the Oregon high desert, an apprentice mortician stumbles upon a horrific car crash - and into a vortex of treachery, long-buried secrets, and growing menace.

Melisende Dulac is a fish out of water after relocating from the East Coast to a small community in the Oregon high desert. But just as she's beginning to think of Barlow County as home, her life takes an ominous turn when she comes upon a grisly multiple-car wreck and three shattered bodies on an isolated road outside of town. Near the scene, Melisende trips over a fourth body, that of a newborn girl lying a physics-defying distance from the wreckage. There is no one to claim the infant, nor a clear indication she was even part of the accident.

The crash offers plenty of opportunities for an apprentice mortician - but when the victims' bodies are stolen from her family's mortuary, Melisende is branded suspect number one. Then, Portland Lawyer Kendrick Pride arrives on the scene on behalf of one of the victim's families - or so he says - and Melisende begins to see that there's much more to this enigmatic figure than meets the eye.

As the shadows gather and the mystery deepens, Melisende must race to find the truth - or be swallowed by the darkness.

I decided I don't read American mysteries - they rarely sound interesting. Even the illustrations on the covers does nothing to lure me in....
Then, I bought this title. Loved it. From the
beginning to the end. The high desert of Oregon, so interesting. A mortician's career,
very interesting. Nothing gory, BTW.
A genuine mystery that unfolds so quietly.
I was sucked in before I knew it. I sure hope for another one from this author/ narrator.
