Overview

Requiem for a KidnapperBy Donald TarmanThe predator-ravaged body of a man spotted from the air on the California-Nevada border west of Las Vegas, is determined to be that of the abductor of a five-year old girl, her body never recovered. The kidnapper, captured previously by authorities, had escaped after killing a deputy. The grotesque technique used to murder the kidnapper shocked even the medical examiner. Within hours of the discovery, a delirious and bloody, sun-burned man found wandering in the desert by off-road drivers near the murder site is arrested and charged with the kidnapper's murder. Hired by an anonymous benefactor to defend the accused man an LA lawyer sends Cort McKusic, a freelance investigator to the desert with instructions to search for evidence to use in his defense. During the investigation Cort must also evade assaults from the psychotic brother of a woman with illusory matrimonial plans who Cort rejected. In deep depression, she attempted suicide. The brother has sworn to kill Cort.With the lawyer pushing for supporting evidence for a defense Cort discovers the multi-million-dollar ransom paid to the kidnapper by the girl's casino-owning father, borrowed presumably from his mob-connected associates, has gone missing. To prove the innocence of the client Cort must find the ransom. A demented local methamphetamine chemist drops tantalizing hints to the investigator suggesting the ransom may have been cached deep in an abandoned, labyrinthine mine east of Death Valley. Soon, Cort finds himself on a treasure hunt with gun-toting east-coast mobsters on his trail in the search for the ransom.
