Micki Jaynes, the FBI Art Crimes Unit's go-to appraiser, doesn't even wave good-bye to her good-for-nothing husband when Interpol calls. A 150-year-old bulto-a religious icon purportedly destroyed in the Smithsonian's Great Fire in 1865-has turned up not once but three times in Sotheby's auction results. Micki meets Special Agent Jacques Pearce in Santa Fe, New Mexico, as the City Different prepares to celebrate Dio de los Muertos, and finds murder-a prostitute bludgeoned by the bulto they seek. A shopkeeper killed in the same way. A former lover of Micki's done in as well.Why are the victims being silenced, each of them murdered by a holy relic? Is the murder weapon a copy of the elusive original, or is it the real thing? And how much trouble is Micki's soon-to-be-ex-husband going to cause while she figures it all out?This snappy, sophisticated mystery will keep you guessing until the last page.
