Claire Caldwell's life is in ruins. Fired from her corporate job and dumped by her boyfriend, she drives to Arizona to settle her great-aunt's estate, planning to sell the ranch and slink back to Chicago.
But Whispering Saguaro Ranch has other plans.
First comes the fox... a peculiar creature with copper fur and knowing eyes that leaves gifts on her doorstep.
Then come the ghosts. Translucent cowboys in her barn. A woman making tamales in her kitchen who's been dead since 1985. They've been waiting for her, because Claire has inherited more than land and livestock. She's inherited the ability to see the dead. When the most hated man in Perdido Springs dies on her property and the sheriff dismisses it as an accident, only Claire can find the truth... Someone in this peaceful desert town is a killer, and in a place where the victim threatened half the population's livelihoods, everyone's a suspect.With only a mystical fox, a house full of chatty spirits, and the ruggedly handsome veterinarian who tends her animals on her side, Claire must solve a murder nobody wants solved... before she becomes the next ghost haunting Whispering Saguaro Ranch.
Welcome to the desert, where the dead don't rest and the living keep dangerous secrets.
