Cool Heat

Sydney Jesup, a former investigator, has made it her mission to take on a powerful Nevada businessman who wants to build a gambling resort in the Sierra mountains. When a clumsy hired gunman fails to kill her, his employer calls in a professional from New York, a killer known for making deaths look like suicide. The job seems simple until he learns Sydney has allied herself with Marco Cruz, a former border agent with a troubled past of his own. Soon, bodies begin turning up at the quiet lakeside resort, and the pressure rises fast.
