Book III in the Jake and Dora series, One Weekend in Tombstone, takes place against the backdrop of the desert southwest, and unfinished business is the order of the day. In Sheltering in Place, Book I, spoiler alert, Jake and Dora ultimately go their separate ways. In Book II, Three Wednesdays, these two would-be lovers ended up being ships that passed in the night. But in Book III, there is hope for a happy reunion. Or is there? Now that the pandemic has somewhat subsided, Dora has decided to take a page out of Jake's book and, emulating his lifestyle, becomes a rambler too. But rather than divesting herself of all her possessions and taking off on foot, she buys a small RV and drives off into the heart of this great country to see what adventures it has to offer. Fate intervenes, and Jake and Dora meet once again, only to have him mysteriously disappear the following morning. False accusations, mistaken identities, and being a victim of circumstances all play a part in the disappearance. Refusing to believe she had been abandoned in a dusty little town by a man she thought she knew, Dora sifts through clues to try to solve the mystery.
