SummaryWhile working a smuggling case for Astute Investigations,
Denver detective Wil Bregon is drawn to San Francisco's
rollicking Barbary Coast. Formerly an Eastern lawyer and
experienced gun for hire, Wil's not daunted by outlaws and
ruffians or prowling foggy dockside taverns. But he isn't
prepared for ghostly visitations from his dead wife or
finding himself powerfully attracted to a young blonde who
bears a noticeable resemblance to his late spouse.
Harmonie Ashlar is a charlatan, a girl with a local
reputation for staging pranks for monetary gain. Is she
purposely masquerading as Wil's deceased wife as part of
some confidence scheme? Has someone paid her to threaten
Wil's sanity, or is his own imagination playing tricks on
him, in an eerie, inexplicable Sleight of Mind? Wil Bregon
seems to be everything Harmonie has always yearned for: a
man who's handsome, resourceful, rugged, and shrewd. He's
also deeply troubled—and there is someone watching the
pair. Someone willing to do anything to keep them apart.
Caught in a web of deceit, can Harmonie and Wil escape the
danger looming over them and the lingering phantom of
Wil's turbulent past?
