Synopsis
Murder in the heat of the desert
Gabe Ramsay had a plan: bury his past as a disgraced college professor, keep his secrets buried deeper, and spend his days guiding tourists through the sunbaked beauty of the Sonoran Desert. Rattlesnakes and sunburn, he expected. A murder weapon with his fingerprints on it, he did not.
When a developer Gabe publicly clashed with turns up dead —stabbed with Gabe's own skinning knife—he becomes suspect number one. His only ally is Madrone Hunter, the guide company's sharp-tongued chef, who's better at reading people than she lets on. Together they have to out-sleuth a killer before the desert claims Gabe as the next victim.
Adventure Calls Mysteries — where the landscapes are breathtaking, the locals are colorful, and someone always ends up dead.

"Kathy McIntosh… has made it her business to understand her uniquely Arizona setting and she pays artful attention to authentic low desert details."
—Arizona Daily Star
"The author easily creates fascinating and potentially deadly characters who move through this fast-paced and intriguing plot. We get the fun of trying to figure out who-done-it and why. The Sonoran Desert setting is especially well-described and informative without being pedantic. This is a terrific read."

"Loved this book! From the characters to the mystery, I couldn't put the book down. Awesome 'who dun it', filled with budding romance & wit. Highly recommend. Looking forward to reading the next one!!"

"I enjoyed the book and the development of the characters as Gabe and Madrone delve into their lives. It's always fun to have a murder victim that nobody likes and everybody had a reason to kill. There is plenty of intrigue, discovery of less than savory pasts, and a few budding romances along the way. If you enjoy a good, well-written cozy mystery with amateur sleuths and a unique location, you will enjoy reading this book. I will definitely be looking for more books by this author."
