Thriller P.I. | Mystery Woman Sleuth
There's an unpleasant surprise waiting outside Wyoming
college professor Sally Alder's office on a cold blustery
afternoon: a female student, Charlie Preston, recently and
brutally battered. Since Charlie refuses to call the cops,
tell her family, or see a doctor, Sally has no other
recourse but to give the damaged girl the coat off her
back, the cash in her wallet, and to wish her good luck.
But two weeks after Charlie vanishes, the body of
her estranged father is found, beaten to death in an
alley. Now Sally is racing to find the missing girl before
the police do, since she's far less convinced of Charlie's
guilt than they are. And a killer may be hiding in a maze
of lethal secrets and dark passions, preparing to inflict
a terrible punishment on a frightened young woman . . .
and perhaps on her overly inquisitive teacher as well.
