Retirement was supposed to be peaceful... until murder crashed the tour.

When recently widowed librarian Sally Harper sets out in her new RV with her faithful German Shepherd, Agatha, she's finally fulfilling the dream she shared with her late husband -- to see America's natural wonders. The Grand Canyon seems like the perfect place to start their adventure.

But when Sally joins a three-day guided tour, her librarian's eye for detail notices tension bubbling beneath the surface. There's the enthusiastic young guide Tyler, the curmudgeonly geology professor Elmer Watkins, his estranged daughter Celia, and the wealthy Henderson couple whose strained politeness barely masks their hostility.

When Professor Watkins plunges to his death during a sunrise hike, officials quickly rule it an accident. But Sally isn't convinced. The missing camera, disturbed footprints, and the professor's cryptic final words about rock formations "not being what they should be" suggest something far more sinister.

Armed with her research skills, observant nature, and Agatha's keen nose, Sally begins investigating. She soon discovers the professor's geological survey threatened a multi-million-dollar resort development -- and someone was desperate enough to kill to keep those findings buried.

As Sally digs deeper, she realizes retirement might be more exciting than she planned. And in the magnificent landscape of the Grand Canyon, she'll need all her wits to avoid becoming the next victim.

First in a delightful new series featuring an unconventional sleuth whose librarian skills and canine companion make them a force to be reckoned with.
