Ancient prophecies and murder Three brothers coveted the title of sacred fetish carver for the Fire-Sky Pueblo. All are dead. Is it murder? Or the vengeful spirit of the god of fire and death? With only one child left to inherit, Police Sergeant Nicky Matthews fights to protect a vulnerable young boy with a gift that could cement his place as a leader of the Fire-Sky People-unless a killer gets to him first. Someone in the Fire-Sky police department is warning Albuquerque's most vicious drug gang of undercover operations on the Pueblo. Begging Nicky to help him find the snitch, her former lover-and New Mexico State Police Chief-barrels back into her life. But when the trail leads to her best friend, Nicky is torn between her loyalties and her job. The two investigations collide as fires erupt on and off the Pueblo. With the tension, heat, and body count rising, Nicky's actions take a reckless and dangerous turn, driven by elements outside of her control. She soon realizes the god of fire and death only appears to those about to die. And lately, she's seen him a lot.

All three books are part of the Nicky Matthews mystery series. She's writes two other mystery series: the De-extinct Zoo Mysteries, and the Lies series.Carol loves the combination of strong women sleuths, paranormal and murder mystery, mixed with science or, as she likes to call it-BiocheMystery. She sets all her books in the beautiful state of New Mexico, where she lives with her husband, Leos, and her extremely grumpy rescue chihuahua, Hermès.
