A woman's body is found in Salisbury, and in London yet another woman dies from supposed "natural causes." But there are no natural causes in a Martha Grimes novel or in the world inhabited by Scotland Yard Chief Superintendent Richard Jury.Is there a link connecting these three women? Of course. Jury is convinced that the link is Santa Fe, New Mexico.
