Summary

Water can keep you alive ...

A man in a wheelchair goes missing in rough country of Wyoming's Big Horn Basin. Reporter Elizabeth Danniher and KWMT-TV colleague Mike Paycik immediately join the search organized by local rancher Tom Burrell. But soon they're on a search of a different kind to help out a friend – a search for the truth.

They have to sort out suicide, accident, or murder.

It takes them deep into the intricacies of the community served by the Red Sail Ditch – the irrigation system that could make a ranch viable or worthless. They find rivalries, cooperation, antagonisms, inter-dependencies, and motives for murder.

... Or get you killed.

I find my self reading faster or meaner or with an attitude, depending on which part I'm reading. This tells me that I am really into the story. This is the best evidence I can give that a book is good. There are so many story lines within one book. I do have to make a list of characters to keep up; but, these are worth it. The montage of characters also gives you a lot of chances to develop your own images of the characters. Trust me Tom and Mike look really good in my imagination. Aunt Gee and Mrs. Parens make an interesting picture, too.

Excellent story! The mysteries keep getting better and better! I love the way Mikes aunt and Mrs. Paren and Penny keep feeding information to Elizabeth and Mike. Tom has his spot in the group along with Diana and Jennifer. Such a cohesive group. The relationship between Elizabeth, Mike and Tom is developing nicely. I highly recommend this series of mystery books as they are well written and developed!

This is an amazing series....book four was as engaging as book one. The plot was not unique, but so well crafted that I was riveted....

I am so loving this series. I am ready to start Book 5. I love her main character, Elizabeth (E.M. Danniher) and all the surrounding characters as well. Makes you want to start the next story immediately.

A great series continues

Usually by book 4 of a series, that something special found in the first books has been lost. I am so happy to say that is not the case here. Great plot, the characters are progressing (at a realistic pace!). Love it when a series can still rely on the plot to carry it through.
