The desert look

by Bernard Schopen

She is convinced she's onto the story that will fast forward her career. Miranda arrives in Jack's camp scared, desperate, and carrying a thirty-year-old photograph of two Las Vegas show girls. One of the women pictured is thought to be dead, and the other one is missing - so are one million dollars. Only one piece of the story can pull Jack out of the desert - the dead showgirl was Jack's mother. Now, the man who always believed his mother's death was an accident must determine if she was murdered.
