Summary

"Raleigh Harmon is one of the best heroines in modern literature."—Nicole Petrino-Salter, Into the Fire 
On a scenic riverbank outside Seattle, forensic geologist Raleigh Harmon accidentally digs up evidence linked to the local FBI's most famous unsolved mystery—D. B. Cooper's hijacking of an airplane and later disappearance. 
But when the Bureau hires Raleigh to help solve its legendary cold case, her life starts to fall apart. The state crime lab also wants her to identify geology linked to a young girl's murder that might send an innocent man to death row. 
Juggling two urgent cases, Raleigh digs deeper into both and triggers a dangerous series of events. She also fractures her fresh romance with agent Jack Stephanson. 
What's worse, Jack doesn't seem to care. 
In The Moon Stands Still, Raleigh Harmon confronts her worst fears of failure and abandonment, while fighting to deliver justice and uncover the truth. 
But that truth is going to change her life forever… 
Praise for the Raleigh Harmon mysteries 
"Raleigh is truly a remarkable character…."—Melissa 
"If you have not read any of these books, do yourself a great favor and get them all!!"—Jennifer 
"What I love most about this book is how very real Raleigh seems to be. I keep thinking, 'Raleigh's just like one of us.'" —Pia 
Editorial Reviews of the Raleigh Harmon series 
"It isn't often that I cry at the end of a thriller. This time, part of me was overflowing with affection for the characters; the other part was filled with disappointment because the story was over." Karen Dahood, Bookpleasures.com 
"…adding to Giorello's reputation as a pro and a shining star." Publisher's Weekly 
"Giorello has won the Christy Award and has received two Pulitzer Prize nominations. When you read this book, you'll see why." Booklist, starred review 
"The clever plot twists will have readers riveted from the start. Tough, edgy Raleigh Harmon and the city of Richmond are beauties with endearing qualities that are hard to resist. Fans of Sue Grafton and Tim Downs should add Giorello to their favorites list." Romantic Times, 4.5 stars

    Isolated monasteries nestling in the peaks, precipices and giddying gorges of the snow-capped Himalayas… The filth-encrusted and lice-infested hovels of the native people… It’s all a far cry from the genteel sophistication she’s left behind in Monte Carlo. But as always, Vivian Carrow’s as defiant as she’s beautiful – and, nursing a broken heart, she’s determined to accompany her father on a perilous mission to Tibet. Faced with a haughtily handsome and arrogant Captain whom she suspects is a murdering spy, a lecherous, drug-crazed Indian prince and gangs of murderous monks, that defiance is tested to its limits – indeed almost to the death. Will Vivian plunge to an icy death in a mountain crevasse? Or fall into love with the man she so hated.
