High Country
ByPublisher Description
The twelfth thrilling mystery in the New York Times bestselling series
It's fall in the Sierra Mountains, and Anna Pigeon is slinging hash in Yosemite National Park's historic Ahwahnee Hotel. Four young people—all seasonal park employees—have disappeared, and two weeks of work by crack search-and-rescue teams have failed to turn up a single clue. Investigators are unsure as to whether the four went AWOL for reasons of their own—or died in the park.
Needing an out-of-park ranger to work undercover, Anna is detailed to dining room duty. After a week of waiting tables, she knows the missing employees are only the first indication of a sickness threatening the park. Her twenty-something roommates give up their party-girl ways and panic; her new restaurant colleagues regard her with suspicion and fear.
Yet when Anna's life is threatened and her temporary supervisor turns a deaf ear, she follows the scent of evil, taking a solo hike up a snowy trail to the high country, seeking answers. What awaits her is a nightmare of death and greed—and perhaps her final adventure.
