Successful movie producer Wolf Willett is stunned when he sees his own death reported in a major newspaper. It says he was a victim in a triple homicide during a sordid tryst with his wife and one of his supposed friends. But who is the unidentified third corpse? Why can’t Wolf remember anything about the night in question? And who wants him dead?

Wolf had the means and motive—and his inexplicable memory loss seems far too suspicious to suit Santa Fe’s crusading D.A. who promptly has Wolf arrested. When another murder complicates the scenario, Willett turns to hot-shot criminal attorney Ed Eagle to help clear his name—and stop a killer who’s determined to finish the job.

Ed Eagle, Santa Fe’s pre-eminent trial lawyer, first introduced in Stuart Woods’s earlier novel, “Santa Fe Rules,” finds himself in extreme domestic difficulties. On the morning of his fiftieth birthday, as he is about to open his elegant new law office, Eagle learns that he is in the sort of trouble usually reserved for his unluckiest clients.

Quickly marshalling his resources, which include two private detectives, an accused murderer, and an ace ex-IRS agent, he begins a campaign to save his law practice, his wealth, his reputation and his self respect from the astonishing actions of the person closest to him.

The action takes his team across the US southwest, and deep into Mexico where no one can be trusted, least of all the police. We visit the lush, southern California world of the very wealthy, the delights of exclusive spas and secluded hotels, and the ever-present danger of the U.S.-Mexican border. Eagle is pitted against a wily and completely ruthless adversary. Full of double-crosses and unexpected twists, Ed’s life is one of heightened risks – and pleasures.

In this thriller featuring the colorful Santa Fe trial lawyer Ed Eagle, we find the tables turned on Eagle when he testifies as a witness for the prosecution in the trial of his ex-wife, Barbara Eagle. She has been a very, very bad girl.

The trial ends in a way Ed had not anticipated, and Barbara is still in a position to make his life and that of others, a living hell.

With private detectives, hit men, double crosses and billion-dollar-bank accounts involved, Ed calls in every favor and follows every lead, no matter where they take him. From posh resorts in the desert of California and the lush wine country of Napa, to the New Mexico high country and the seedy hotels of Tijuana, Ed Eagle won’t rest until he discovers the truth about what Barbara is up to – and settles the score.

If you run into trouble in Santa Fe, Ed Eagle is the man to see…

Ed Eagle, the six-foot-seven, take-no-prisoners Santa Fe attorney, is no stranger to murder, corruption, or organized crime—both north and south of the border. His home in Santa Fe, a picturesque desert town where the wealthy enjoy the good life, seems like a welcome retreat from the grit and crime of big cities. But looks can be deceiving, and trouble has a way of finding Ed.

A puzzling murder in a golfer’s hacienda brings in a new client for Ed, but while his time is spent unraveling the complex web of sex, money, and false identity, a much more dangerous threat lurks. A ruthless and implacable enemy who has proven more than a match for him in the past has returned to Santa Fe, and this time she wants nothing less than all-out retribution.

From the seamy prisons of Mexico to the glamorous movie sets of L.A. and the lush and exclusive resorts of Santa Fe, Ed Eagle and his team of private detectives must hunt or be hunted…
