Silver Lies
|
| | | As 1879 draws to a close, a Rocky Mountain boomtown has infected the world with silver fever. Unfortunately for Joe Rose, a precious-metals assayer, death stakes its own claim, and his body is found trampled into the muck behind Inez Stannerts saloon. Most townsfolk dismiss Joes death as an accident. But Inez wonders.
Annotation:
Inez Stannert runs a Leadville, Colorado saloon in 1879. She's extremely upset when the frozen body of a friend is discovered behind the saloon. Unlike her partner Abe, a free black man, Inez is convinced that it was murder, not an accident, and vows to find out the truth of it.

"...[An] excellent debut....Inez is a woman well ahead of her time and a welcome addition to the genre, as is Parker." (starred review) 08/18/2003 |
