Raiment Red And A Raven: A Southwest Mystery

The snow reminded ancient people of the rhythm of the earth's seasons in its final descent. They watched the birds who would roost or fly low when the temperature dropped. Earlier that day a track of blades went through a path in the woods. Others followed, packing the snow down. The mountain was almost quiet. Throngs of skiers left the runs in Aspen to eat dinner. One person stopped, set the trap, and waited for the opportune moment. Two female skiers approached. Weapons appeared, bodies fell, and blood splattered the fresh powder. The killer worried the snow wouldn't hide two bodies. The colder air pushed the killer to leave.Police arrived days later to find one body in the woods. Lisa Givens was dead, and Ali Zarin, a news media co-worker from Los Angeles was missing. Earlier in the day, Ali wore a long red dress in a photo shoot with a raven. The bird was enamored with the model as was the hidden person among the trees. No one saw the shadow.The hunt for the missing woman would take Detective Moon and Constantine to Albuquerque. Unlocking secrets of a mastermind killer were the detectives usual work day. Suspects involved a taxidermist, birdman, and anyone connected to the deceased or living. Sheriff Cray, the local law enforcement officer pointed the two detectives to an older murder case at a ski resort. The sheriff and his buddy, Matlock, were friends with Grant Evans. Mr. Evans was a rich rancher possibly in love with Ali. The ranch and his properties would make excellent cover.A wolf knows to wait to kill again.
