Everybody in Hacienda has heard the rumors about that night.
Small town darling Gracia Cuoco was murdered. The last person to see her alive? Valencia Lamb's father--the town's respected sheriff. Who disappeared after visiting the crime scene.
Six months later, Valencia can't let it go. There has to be something crucial she's missing.
Tired of waiting for the interim sheriff to crack the case, Valencia starts her own investigation. But the deeper in she gets, the murkier the waters. Someone in Hacienda doesn't want Valencia to know what really happened, and they won't hesitate to make her disappear, too.
