Susan Morris is reveling in the artificial cold of Ski Dubai, an indoor ski hill in the middle of the desert, with fellow ex-pat Pat Thornton when she sees the chairlift carrying Pat's husband detach from its cable and plummet to the ground. After an attempt is made on Barry Thornton's life while he's in hospital, Susan begins to suspect the chairlift crash was no accident. Then the Thorntons' home on the Palm Jumeirah is broken into and their Sri Lankan maid goes missing. Feeling the tell-tale prickling at the back of her neck, Susan is certain all these incidents are connected, but how?
In this second book in the Deep Mysteries series, the innate drive to help others puts ex-nurse Susan Morris in precarious positions. Her very life is threatened as she pokes her nose into places it doesn't belong, all in an effort to help others.
