Miami PI Mike Shayne is about to discover just how cutthroat the art world can be in this riveting crime thriller.
Miami is in an uproar over a supposed serial killer targeting hitchhiking young women. The latest disappearance involves Meri Gillespie, a twenty-three-year-old grad student who walked out on her art professor boyfriend just after he made one of the biggest discoveries in years. On an expedition in Mexico, he uncovered the fragments of a complete Pre-Columbian funerary mask. The only problem is that Meri has taken one of those pieces, and she was last seen thumbing for a ride . . .
Taking the case is Shayne's friend-also a private investigator-who decides to use herself as a decoy, taking to the local highways to lure the predator in. And just like that, she's gone.
With both women's lives-and hundreds of thousands of dollars-at stake, Shayne must dig through the dirt of ambitious professors, dishonest museum directors, and run-of-the-mill madmen to fit together the pieces of a deadly puzzle, before the women go down in history for all the wrong reasons . . .
