Jessica, a professional illustrator from San Francisco, and a practicing Tibetan Buddhist, thought she’d found the perfect man in Alex while on assignment in Arizona, and married him after a passionate three-month liaison. Her days as the wife of a wealthy Anthropologist and ranch owner are perfect. That is until the mysterious death of Alex’s first wife begins to interfere.
The dead woman had been stunningly beautiful, accomplished and well loved, and it seems like everyone Jessica meets was either in love with Rachel, or considered her their best friend.
As the tale unfolds, it has a deadly secret love affair, stolen artifacts, skinwalkers, spiritual ghosts and love gone awry, leaving Jessica distressed and even more puzzled. How would she save the man she loved from prison and possible death? Meditation and mantra helps to calm her mind, but won’t solve the mystery of the heart.
