Under A Desert Sky
Nicole Lewis is a first-rate police detective
who works for the Palm Springs' Police Department.
Independent and persistent, she is assigned to
a homicide case at the Desert Sky Hotel and
Resort, where she investigates the brutal
murder of a 19-year-old Hispanic housekeeper
named Elena Gonzalez. The finger instantly
points to Elena's jealous and possessive
boyfriend, Enrique, but the case proves to
be not that simple. Elena had been posing
for photographs in a lurid magazine and
Nicole learns that the Desert Sky is
currently having financial difficulties
due to the discovery of massive sums of
money being embezzled from the resort.
The independent Nicole has long since
given up on finding anyone who will accept
her often dangerous job and love her for
what she is. She has no idea this case
will lead her to the man who might be able
to fulfill all her dreams ... it's just
too bad he is the chief suspect in the case,
Justin Zachary!
