Blood Red Summer - A Leo DesRoches Mystery

Book three of the prize-winning Leo Desroches series opens during a mosquito-infested summer in Edmonton with what seems to be a typical overdose of a young Native male in the inner city. Some white rocks spill out of the body bag; not crack cocaine, but rough diamonds. The victime was not a drug user, but a worker at one of the new diamond mines above the Arctic Circle. Leo is led to investigate a smuggling ring and a deadly, billion dollar conflict between Native groups, rival gangs, and international mining conglomerates.
