On the California Limited, she meets Jerry Begay, a charming Navajo school teacher. They feel an instant rapport, but he's headed for Gallup, so it's but a brief encounter.

They take Prudence under their wing and invite her along to dances and the local hot springs. Four days later, Martha's brother, Tom, is found murdered. Was it because of his bootlegging activities? Or his amorous relationship with Liz Kearney, daughter of the richest man in the area and rumored mob boss? And was that really Jerry Begay whom Prudence saw meeting with Tom in secret the day before he was killed ?Following in the footsteps of her favorite fictional detectives, Tommy and Tuppence, Prudence is determined to solve the murder.
