When transsexual starlet Aisling is murdered, Detective Geraldine Meyers is assigned the case. With help from medical examiner Dr. Rachel Hunter, Gerri realizes this is no ordinary killing. While she might not want to call in over-eager anthropologist Dr. Kinsey DanAllart, the detective is forced to trust her friend's expertise in symbology, even though doing so means admitting "weird" things might be happening in Silver City. As the three friends unravel the mystery of the dancer's death, one thing is made absolutely apparent--something isn't right in their new hometown. And someone is doing everything they can to make sure the truth doesn't come out.

In Silver City, sometimes friendship can be murder.

By the time she was striding across the parking lot to the door, she had to shake her head to pull herself into the present moment. A quick nod to the pair of guards behind the desk-a smirk to herself at how quickly they straightened up and turned serious at the sight of her-and she was covering the length of the hallway in long, steady steps.


The swinging door to the morgue opened silently as she pushed her way through, surprised to find Ray wasn't alone. Dr. Daniel Druit stood over the body of Harold Moore, a frown on his tanned face. Gerri could tell from the way his thick, white mustache bunched, the deep lines around his blue eyes, Druit had the bit in his teeth and didn't want to let go.
