Summary:
How could you forget whether or not you murdered somebody? Thats exactly what Albuquerque lawyer-cum-sleuth Neil Hamel asks herself when she takes on the defense of an elderly client who cant remember whether she ran over the girl her car surely did kill.
Early in the morning of November first, Neil and her boyfriend, the Kid, are shaken out of their post-coital bliss when they find a surprise visitor at Neils apartment door. The visitor is Martha Conover, a pinched, elegant older woman who looks askance at Neils just-had-sex aura but still pleads for her help. Marthas been accused of running over Justine Virga, the girl who accidentally killed her grandson, Michael, in a car crash three years - to the day - earlier. Though Justines crushed corpse is found outside Marthas home and Marthas car bears an incriminating dent, Neil gradually discovers clues from Marthas prim past and Justines wild one that point to other suspects, from drug dealers to South American death squads to Michaels Latino father, wronged two decades earlier by Marthas bigotry.
While Neil searches for Justines killer, she treats us to her wry take on every stratum of todays Southwest, from its breathtaking landscape to the real estate boondoggles that the S&L crisis has inflicted upon it, from Santa Fes polo set and new-age entrepreneurs to a homeless man who coaxes poetry out of used typewriters.
