New Mexico Thrillers

Cold case murder investigations are a lot harder to solve than current murder cases. Particularly when the murder occurred over 15 years ago. But when a friend asks Brigid to investigate a cold case for her in New Mexico, Brigid feels she has to at least try. What she hadn’t taken into consideration were old grudges, a small town that kept secrets, and people who were willing to commit hate crimes to keep those secrets.

Dumped by her husband for a man, ex-rodeo queen Emily Bernal yearns for a fresh start. When a handsome local attorney named Jack offers her a gig, she's not sure if it's the right fit. But after a dead body takes a swan dive right in front of her and she learns a missing six-year-old girl is caught in the aftermath, Emily's heart sends her from barrel racing to paralegal work in a hurry. As she and Jack interrogate the young girl's tight-lipped mother, a string of strange coincidences don't seem to add up.

Emily Bernal may have traded the fast-paced rodeo world for paralegal work, but the change hasn’t made her life any simpler.

But the closer she gets to the truth, the more her fiancé pushes her away. Emily wonders if the man of her dreams is holding back something far more sinister than three little words.
