Murders in the High Desert Tony Spallone

For three years, a serial killer has been targeting employees of Santa Fe's Indian Bend Hotel and Casino by first abducting them and then burying them alive in the vast high desert of New Mexico's Yiqua Indian Reservation. That's the conclusion of Detective Clay Bryce of the Santa Fe Criminal Investigation Unit and Chief Jacoby Johnstone of the Yiqua Pueblo Tribal Police. The two combine forces and expertise to solve the murders. Among the suspects are Denver Stennet, roommate of two of the victims, and John Grainger, Operations VP at the Indian Bend. Still others emerge with motives of their own in this perverse tale of death in the desert.
