A baby left on her doorstep.
A woman tormented by visions.
A killer who's already claimed one life—and wants more.
Cici Gurule longs for serenity. But when a child appears at her door and blood-soaked dreams invade her sleep, she's pulled into a chilling mystery concealed beneath Santa Fe's streets.
With Detective Sam Chastain at her side and her twin's voice guiding her, Cici races to uncover a ruthless killer's identity before they strike again. To protect the child—and herself—she must risk everything.
A riveting blend of spiritual suspense and emotional depth, A Heritage of Death will grip fans of Tana French, Louise Penny, and Nevada Barr until the final page.

Wow
Another adventure for Cici and Sam full of mystery and suspense and the slow burn romance that’s brewing between the two. I enjoyed watching Sam and Cici work through their baggage. And begin to trust the connection the Aci. Looking forward to their next adventure and watching their romance grow.
