Book Description
A new millennium has begun and brought with it challenges, opportunities, excitement, and, in one deadly event, terror. The Warrior Spirit Investigations team and their extensive circle of family and friends have seen many startling changes in their personal and professional lives. Marriages and partnerships have endured, and broken, and blossomed on the new horizon. Besides the stunning events that christened the new century there are secrets surrounding the clan that will have lifelong impacts in unexpected ways. A hidden group of people have come together to play a deadly game whose rules accommodate a lack of conscience down to sheer evil. One by one they target innocent individuals; they have a pattern whose theme would on first glance seem innocent but is anything but. Guided by sociopathy they feed on fear and soon enough come to feed on one another. Their actions draw in Memphis, Sage, and their team and associates, and the fates of the evildoers and those who battle to uncover and punish them become deeply intertwined. What no one expected as the pursuit began and continued was that a deep, dark secret hidden forty years earlier would explode into everyone’s lives with shocking revelations that would redefine the sense of safety and family that had been the backbone of the clan’s lives for decades. A shocking secret that no one saw coming. A secret with devastating consequences.

Book Description
From the bestselling author of Tuxedo Park, the extraordinary story of the thousands of people who were sequestered in a military facility in the desert for twenty-seven intense months under J. Robert Oppenheimer where the world's best scientists raced to invent the atomic bomb and win World War II. In 1943, J. Robert Oppenheimer, the brilliant, charismatic head of the Manhattan Project, recruited scientists to live as virtual prisoners of the U.S. government at Los Alamos, a barren mesa thirty-five miles outside Santa Fe, New Mexico. Thousands of men, women, and children spent the war years sequestered in this top-secret military facility. They lied to friends and family about where they were going and what they were doing, and then disappeared into the desert. Through the eyes of a young Santa Fe widow who was one of Oppenheimer's first recruits, we see how, for all his flaws, he developed into an inspiring leader and motivated all those involved in the Los Alamos project to make a supreme effort and achieve the unthinkable.

Project Manager Robert Oppenheimer selected Los Alamos, New Mexico, in the Jemez Mountains thirty miles west of Santa Fe as the perfect secret "middle of nowhere" spot.But not secret enough for the United States government! Those recruited to work on the project--from top scientists to dishwashers--were unaware of their final destination. They only received orders to report to a room at the back of Santa Fe's Trujillo Plaza on Palace Avenue. From here, they disappeared through a "secret portal" to Los Alamos--the back alley.Thousands of men, women, and children spent the war years as near-prisoners in that top-secret mountaintop military facility, lying to friends and family about where they were and what they were doing, even using aliases on rare trips to town.While Oppenheimer spread false rumors that the secret project was developing electric rockets, locals became convinced the isolated location was a hush-hush home for members of the Women's Army Corps who found themselves single and pregnant.ANY BODY HERE?Early Masons, along with the Odd Fellows fraternal organization, opened Santa Fe's first cemetery for non-Roman Catholics in 1853 on the site of today's Scottish Rite Cathedral. The cemetery closed in 1895. Officials had its graves carefully moved to other later-opened cemeteries--or so they claimed. However, skeletons still turn up here occasionally, as they do in much of Santa Fe! Tread lightly. Past centuries don't always stay buried in The City Different!DISCOVER MORE of Santa Fe's intriguing "skeletons" in SANTA FE SECRETS!

Book Description
When thinking of New Mexico, few Americans think spy-vs.-spy intrigue, but in fact, to many international intelligence operatives, the state’s name is nearly synonymous with espionage, and Santa Fe is a sacred site. The KGB’s single greatest intelligence and counterintelligence coups, and the planning of the organization’s most infamous assassination, all took place within one mile of Bishop Lamy’s statue in front of Saint Francis Cathedral in central Santa Fe. In this fascinating guide, former CIA agent E. B. Held uses declassified documents from both the CIA and KGB, as well as secondary sources, to trace some of the most notorious spying events in United States history. His work guides modern visitors through the history of such events as the plot to assassinate Leon Trotsky, Ted Hall’s delivery of technical details of the atom bomb to the KGB, and the controversial allegations regarding Los Alamos National Laboratory scientist Dr. Wen Ho Lee’s contacts with China. Held provides background material as well as modern site locations to allow Cold War enthusiasts the opportunity to explore in a whole new way the settings for these historical events.
