Hardcover. New York , Doubleday, 2nd pr., 1999, Book: Very Good, Dust Jacket: Very Good, Clean, unmarked copy with only minor wear to dust jacket. In the fifth of Dianne Day's acclaimed mysteries, the intrepid Fremont's first joint sleuthing adventure with her partner, Michael, has explosive consequences that almost prove fatal for them both. Fremont Jones and her "partner in love and work," Michael Archer, have been hired to look into a series of petty vandalisms plaguing the Southern Pacific Railroad. They are riding a train incognito when it is blown to smithereens just east of Salt Lake City. Michael, luckily, suffers only a broken collarbone, but Fremont simply disappears. Holding stubbornly to the belief that she is still alive, Michael sets out to find her.
