Alguien había entrado de noche en Coyote Ranch, el lujoso rancho del constructor y millonario Guy Kaffey, y lo había matado a tiros, junto a su esposa y cuatro de sus empleados. Peter, sus detectives Scott Oliver y Marge Dunn y el resto de su equipo de investigación de homicidios no tardaron en averiguar que aquellos truculentos asesinatos eran obra de alguien que pertenecía al entorno de la familia. ¿Se trataba únicamente de un robo y un asesinato, o formaba parte de algo aún más retorcido?
