Tularosa--"the place of reddish willows" in Spanish--holds the key
to Kevin Kerney's past and his future. Ex-chief of detectives in
the Santa Fe Police Department, shoved into early retirement by a
shot-up leg, Kerney is fresher in body and mind than he realizes
when Navajo Indian Terry Yazzi, his ex-partner and the man
responsible for his injuries, asks him to locate his son, reported
AWOL from the high-security White Sands Missile Range in southern
New Mexico. To find Sammy Yazzi, Kerney must track clues that lead
deep into the histories of the region-Native American, Hispanic,
and Anglo-and, compellingly, into his own family's ranching past.
And he must deal with the complicated feelings triggered by the
officer in charge of the army's own investigation, Captain Sara
Brannon, a fiery young officer as formidable as she is attractive.
As Sammy's trail spirals into a web of murder, treason, and the
smuggling of priceless artifacts, Kerney and Brannon travel an
accelerating arc across the New Mexico scene--from the
boutique-ridden plaza of Santa Fe, through the sharp-edged beauty
of the high desert, to bordertown gambling dens--to a final
confrontation in which, both wounded and at risk, they must fight
for their lives and for each other against opponents who hold all
the cards. Tularosa begins a series featuring Kevin Kerney. In each
book Kerney investigates a mystery in today's New Mexico with roots
in the rich history of this fascinating region.
