They call themselves the Smarties, six bored upscale trophy wives who meet once a week for lunch in fashionable Santa Fe and decide to start an exclusive escort service just for the fun of it. But what begins as a lark quickly turns deadly. When one of the Smarties is found murdered in a remote mountain church, and a second dies in a mysterious riding accident, the detective team of Jack Wilder, Howard Moon Deer, and his daughter Georgie must find out who is killing off the Smarties, one by one.

Intimate Lies
A compelling account of the turbulent romance of F. Scott Fitzgerald and Sheilah Graham—a beautifully evoked love story written by Sheilah Graham’s son using the papers, diaries, notes, and correspondence she bequeathed to him.
Robert Westbrook’s first book was published in 1963, when he was 17.
He’s been a working writer ever since, penning nearly 20 books, including the Howard Moon Deer Mysteries and Intimate Lies, the acclaimed memoir of his mother Sheilah Graham’s love affair with the brilliant but haunted author F. Scott Fitzgerald.
