<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Silas Pearson is looking for answers. It has been more than three years since his wife, Penelope de Silva, disappeared while working on a conservation project in Utah's red rock wilderness. Law enforcement authorities have given up hope of finding the adventurous Penelope alive. And some suggest that she may not have vanished into the desert at all but simply left Silas for another man. Silas moves to Moab, where his wife was last seen, with one purpose: finding his wife, dead or alive. His search takes him into a spectacular wilderness of red rock canyons, soaring mesas, and vertical earth, where he must confront his failures as a husband and his guilt for not being there when Penelope needed him most.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>Silas Pearson is looking for answers.

The human landscape in <i>The Slickrock Paradox</i> is littered with characters that are not what they seem to be, such that even the good guys are suspect, right up until the end. --<i>Rocky Mountain Outlook</i> <p/>Exciting, dense with literary references, and definitely worth a try ... Legault's complex new series' start will appeal to conspiracy buffs, outdoors enthusiasts, and literary detectives. --<i>Library Journal</i> <p/>In <i>The Slickrock Paradox</i>, the mysterious Southwest is more than setting; the desert's powerful character holds its own with compelling personalities and a captivating story. The realistic plot makes this book timely--such nefarious undertakings could be, and are, happening just beyond our knowing. --Greer K. Chesher, author of <i>Heart of the Desert Wild: Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument</i>, winner of the Utah Book Award for Nonfiction<br><br>
