No one in tiny Wagon Mound, New Mexico heard a thing on the day of the Bean Day festival, but one of the biggest bank heists in state history happened right under their noses. The crime has never been solved. This much is true.
When international bestselling author Susan Slater puts facts and imagination together, she comes up with a dynamic mystery novel based on this unsolved bank heist. Insurance investigator Dan Mahoney is sent to find out what happened and whether his company will have to cover the loss of a spectacular heirloom sapphire and diamond necklace, insured for half a million dollars. On the way to Wagon Mound, his vehicle quits, and he hitches a ride with a man in an old pickup truck. The truck rolls and the driver is killed. Then things truly become convoluted and one thing leads to another--the bank manager is murdered, secretive experiments are going on at ranch just outside town, and evidence pertaining to the bank heist proves difficult to come by. And Dan's only clue is a note shoved under his door saying, It's not what you think.
Slater's excellent sequel to Flash Flood takes insurance investigator Dan Mahoney to tiny Wagon Mound, New Mexico ... Readers will be glad they're along for the ride.-- Publishers Weekly (starred review)
Praise for Susan Slater's Dan Mahoney series:
Flash Flood is just what it sounds like--a fresh, surprising, adrenaline-rush whitewater ride. It's also funny. Susan Slater can flat-out write. --Don Winslow, New York Times bestselling author
There'll be much, much more, with whispers of everything from alien experiments to voodoo, before Slater closes out this lively, surprising case, first of a series. - Kirkus Reviews
Dan Mahoney is an appealingly resilient character, a welcome addition to the roster of sleuths that make the Southwest a hotbed of current mystery fiction. --Publishers Weekly
