They are three ostensibly unsuspicious, unrelated deaths. But when Scotland Yard Chief Superintendent Richard Jury joins forces with Divisional Commander Brian Macalvie and aristocratic amateur sleuth Melrose Plant they discover that beneath the external appearance of innocent death, there may be a stronger - more sinister - connection. A tenuous link between the three women takes Jury all the way to Santa Fe, where he is drawn into a complex tangle of relationships between a lively cast of enigmatic and diverse characters. As the investigation proceeds, the key to the puzzle seems to be in seven random numbers - and the person who can unlock it is an unconventional teenager and her coyote.
