GoodReads post:
Fairly interesting mystery/crime/thriller set in Santa Fe, New Mexico. FBI agent Jack Harper is asked by a girlfriend to come to a New Age Spa in Santa Fe, and checkout the disappearance of her sister. Crooked owners, questionable science, crazed motor cycle gangs, and human sacrifice are themes that are visited in the book. The novel had the feel of a work which is part of a series, and maybe more books are in the works. It's an easy read, and very fast paced. Worth a look.
Agents Jack Harper and Oscar Hidalgo
