Blind Descent (Anna Pigeon Mysteries)

A would-be killer is drawing Anna Pigeon deep into the darkness-and closer to hell than she's ever gone before.
"Anna Pigeon, the intrepid National Park Service ranger in Nevada Barr's superb wilderness mysteries, has had some perilous experiences in the five novels that preceded Blind Descent, but none compares with this thrilling subterranean adventure in the underground caverns of Lechuguilla, 'a monster man-eating cave' in New Mexico's Carlsbad Caverns. When a fellow ranger is injured in a caving accident, Anna chokes back the willies of claustrophobia and joins the rescue team. Burrowing 800 feet below ground, she negotiates airless tunnells, gaping pits, vaulting caverns and silently flowing rivers, each hazard with a daunting name like Razor Blade Run or the Wormhole. At the end of the dangerous descent, she reaches her friend and hears her say, 'It wasn't an accident.' A would-be killer is drawing Anna Pigeon deep into the darkness-and closer to hell than she's ever gone before.

Not in My Backyard: An E.J. Pugh Mystery

Cooper, Susan Rogers

Blood Money stars LAPD homicide detective Jessica Drake, whose compelling drive to find out how one man died leads her to a scurrilous scheme to victimize the survivors of history's most monstrous mass killing. When the unidentified body of an elderly man is found in a wooded area of Los Angeles Rancho Park, it appears that he has succumbed to a heart attack. But Jessie suspects foul play. He was the only person in his family to come out of the concentration camps alive, with a scar on his forearm bearing chilling testimony to the tattooed numbers that once branded him. A man who survived the Holocaust may have lost his life to a murderer - a heartwrenching irony to Jessie, who just recently learned of her own link to the historic atrocity. In search of the mystery that brought the old gentleman's life to a lonely end, and driven by a personal mission on behalf of the family she never knew, Jessie combs the records of retirement homes and prods the failing memories of the residents. What she uncovers are more mysterious deaths and a twisted plot of treachery and greed that threatens to finish off Hitler's remaining victims, as well as steal their long-denied wealth from the vaults of Swiss banks.
