Running on Empty: A Wine Country Cold Case

An unsolved murder. A Ponzi scheme. And a heist that has ex-FBI agent Anne McCormack racing throughout the wine country.

It's been sixteen years since beautiful socialite Dinah Pardini's body was found dumped in the backroads of Northern California's wine country. But is her murder linked to the diabolical Ponzi scheme that now engulfs Santa Rosa, nearly bankrupting many citizens Anne knows and loves?

The ex-FBI agent-turned-estate liquidator certainly believes so and starts putting the clues together: a client's diary with a treasure map, a puzzling letter, a menacing white truck-all of which drives her into dangerous territory, both of the body and spirit. Anne will have to keep her wits about her if she plans on outracing thieves and solving Dinah's murder without becoming a victim herself, for dark forces are working against her at every turn and she's running out of people to trust.
