Quando la polizia ritrova il cadavere di un'assistente sociale uccisa da un'unica letale coltellata, tutto fa pensare a una rapina andata male. Ma la detective Kim Stone è convinta che qualcosa non torni. Pochi giorni dopo, una tossicodipendente della zona viene ritrovata uccisa nello stesso identico modo. L'istinto di Kim le suggerisce che dietro ci sia la mano dello stesso assassino. Eppure non c'è niente a collegare le due vittime, a eccezione dell'inquietante precisione con cui sono state uccise: una singola coltellata.

"I hadn't stepped with angels, but I was very aware that I died. I waited in the hall of judgement. Suddenly there was a door that I entered and found a festive banquet hall with the most magnificent buffet.

The stories in this collection reflect a fundamental truth about Santa Fe: history depends on who's telling it. Too often the story of this city has been told only by the conquerors and the tourism PR firms. Hear the stories that never make the glossy tour brochures: the working class and the underground, the decolonized and the ever-haunted; the Santa Fe only we know.... Conquered and reconquered, colonized and commodified, Santa Fe understands - from historical genocide to the murders of family members - the intimacy of violence.
