description: SEX, LIES, AND MURDERTrade Ellis's high-country Vaca Grande ranch is just a car ride away from a world that couldn't be more different—a city of flash and glitter, poverty and hurt. Trade is happy making her living with Brahman cattle, but an occasional P.I. case in Tucson offers her good cash, a little adventure, and sometimes a date or two. Now she's been hired by an artist whose specialty is creepy paintings of wounded dolls. And this case will offer a little too much of too much sex, secrecy, and murder. Trade's client is the sister of a local news anchor who has gone missing—after getting inside information on the slaying of a musician with a hidden life in a sex cult. Soon Trade finds her way into one of the cult's underground orgies, a scene that shakes and stains her part-Apache soul. Suddenly, to find the missing woman, Trade Ellis must not only match wits with a savage criminal, she must duel with demons—the kind that haunt…the kind that hurt…the kind that kill.
