A Dan Mahoney Mystery
by Susan Slater
A bank heist turns sleepy little Wagon Mound, New Mexico on its ear. It's no straight-forward, demand all the money at gun-point, and run out the front door kind of robbery. It's a sneaky tunneling that probably took months to complete and put the thieves in a room of safe deposit boxes - not the vault which held some two million. Safe deposit boxes? What could have made it worthwhile to bypass a cool couple million?
Maybe the one hundred and ten year old sapphire and diamond necklace belonging to eighty-five year old Gertrude Kennedy was the lure. United Life and Casualty carried a policy on it for five hundred thousand and sent their investigator, Dan Mahoney to sort things out.
But he didn't quite get there when expected. Catching a ride when his Jeep overheats, Dan is the hapless passenger in a rollover that kills the driver and puts him in the hospital only to find out this was no accident. Someone wants him out of Wagon Mound at any cost.
He doesn't scare easily. He hasn't lived his life looking over his shoulder and he's not starting now. But when fiancée, Elaine Linden, disappears and people close to the case turn up dead, maybe he should reconsider. The note slipped under his door in the dead of night says it all - "it's not what you think".
