A hydrologist turns up dead near Moab.
It looks like an accident until Lane Lamore starts asking who stood to gain. Boulder bounty hunter, science journalist, and the only person willing to follow Colorado River water rights to the people holding them.
Always ninety-nine cents. Seven more books waiting if you like her.
“Welcome, Lane Lamore! Lovingly created by Miller, she is strong, self-assured and uncompromising, the kind of rare human that we all hope to meet. Miller's style is sharp and to the point, an easy, enjoyable read. I look forward to the rest of the series.”

Go to the original siteForty-five years of teaching. A lot of jobs before that.
I have taught Pilates since 1981, first in Boulder and then across the United States and by invitation in 13 countries. Along the way I developed Cornu Tension, a way of understanding how the body organizes itself in gravity. It first appeared on the cover of my book The Elements of Pilates in 2000, and since 2020 it has been the center of my work.
These days most of my hours go to writing. My books come down to two subjects: money and movement. Every job I ever had taught me something about people, and most of it ended up on the page.
