Prudence Bates finds bootleggers, murder, romance, and gourmet dining at the Castañ eda Hotel in Las Vegas, New Mexico. Bored with her conventional middle-class life, the 25-year-old librarian escapes Cleveland by heading west to train as a Courier for the Southwestern Indian Detours in Santa Fe. On board the train, she meets Navajo school teacher Jerry Begay. They feel an instant rapport, but he's going on to Gallup. In Las Vegas, she is befriended by Castañ eda Harvey Girls Martha and Anne and desk clerk Clara. Then Martha's brother, Tom, is found murdered. Is it because of his bootlegging activities? Or his amorous activities with Liz Kearney, daughter of the richest man in the area and rumored mob boss? And was that really Jerry Begay whom Prudence saw meeting with Tom in secret the day before he was killed?
