Description

Investigative reporter Keegan Thomas is living a nightmare of guilt and grief since her little girl, Daisy, was kidnapped practically in front of her eyes. Turning her grief to anger, she dedicated herself to searching for missing children, her own included. On what was supposed to be a working vacation, Keegan travels to Monument Valley on the Navajo Indian Reservation seeking the whereabouts of people in an old photograph found in her grandfather's belongings after his death. But the Indians do not welcome this nosy stranger carrying a picture of their old people, some of them dead. While navigating the mysterious ways of the Navajo, Keegan is told that one of the children in the photograph was kidnapped by missionaries and taken to a boarding school. Her search for the child leads to a web of deception that stretches back two generations, and the truth she learns about her own family is the most shocking betrayal of all. Nothing can prepare her for the danger she encounters when she becomes the target of a powerful U. S. senator who will do anything to stop her from telling what she knows about the Picture of Lies. PICTURE OF LIES "The austere beauty of Monument Valley hides a dangerous secret. Similar in feeling to Harrison's romantic suspense mystery The Charmstone . . . This one offers a nice combination of action, romance and Navajo lore." —Kirkus Reviews "While the plot is fascinating, and Harrison's protagonist—a women searching for her kidnapped daughter—is sympathetic, the real stars of this story are Monument Valley and the Navajos who live there." —Betty Webb, author of the prize-winning Lena Jones novels Desert Wives and Desert Lost
