Polygamy can be murder! That s what private detective Lena Jones learns when she helps thirteen year old Rebecca escape from Purity, a polygamy compound hidden in a desolate area near straddling Utah/Arizona border.
When Rebecca s mother is arrested for the murder of Prophet Solomon Royal, Rebecca s intended husband, Lena enters Purity masquerading as a polygamist wife to uncover the real murderer.
