Description: Tenoclock, Colorado, is one of those sleepy, little mountain towns that suddenly gets discovered and discovers that being a place to be often leaves something to be desired . . . unless, of course, you're part of the power structure. Now the town teeters at the edge: Newsweek calls it "the new Vail" and the Hollywood crowd is beginning to buy up the mountainside. Still, Deputy Sheriff Johnelle "Johnnie" Baker can always count on closing the police station at 11:00 P.M. Then one September night, as the tourists begin arriving to watch the aspen change color - and to watch the celebrities watching, too - the sleep is knocked right out of Tenoclock. Johnnie's routine is shattered by a jail brawl and a missing persons report, not to mention the demands for attention from a not-so-significant other. At every scene, the facts just don't add up . . . and witnesses are falling like autumn leaves. One of the bodies is that of the sheriff. The town fathers think naming Johnnie sheriff will be the kind of good publicity they've been seeking, and, after all, what can she do to cause trouble? She'll follow orders, the dead will be buried, and no one will ask embarrassing questions of the folks who are doing so much for the standard of living. Johnnie Baker thinks otherwise.
