Set in Las Vegas, Moon Music reveals the desert city to be much more than the grown-up playground of today.
Decker is the lead investigator in a series of grisly show girl murders.
His primary love interest and investigative partner is Hindu pathologist Dr. Rukmani Kalil, who, along with Poe's twin brother, Remus, slightly batty Mother, Emma, and high school sweetheart, Alison Jensen, allow Kellerman to introduce themes of mysticism and fantasy along with her respect for religion as a motivating and moderating force in human dynamics. In an eerie prescience, the plot of Moon Music is entwined with Nevada's infamous Yucca Flat atomic test site. It was dark and cold and a little spooky. We had to hunker down in these troughs that the soldiers had dug a couple of years before. We were just these kids, giggling and telling scary things because we were nervous.
