In a seemingly peaceful neighborhood in the desert Southwest, where charming homes surround a picturesque garden park, visitor Pari Malik never expects to get enmeshed in yet another murder investigation.
But Pari discovers she is renting the same casita where an earnest young runaway recently lived and vanished.
When a second neighbor receives threatening and cryptic letters, and a third neighbor disappears during a hiking trip in a labyrinthine mountain canyon, Pari seeks to unearth secrets and piece together surprising clues to solve the puzzling mysteries.
Unexpected help may come from Violet, a snooping octogenarian who scornfully spies on her neighbors.
Nine intriguing suspects complicate Pari's probe. Nils is a world champion swimmer and Olympic medalist eager to build a career outside of the pool. Malana, a self-described healer and masseuse, is perhaps loyal to a fault to those she holds dear. Fionn, a male revue dancer in a Las Vegas show, desperately clings to his concept of youth. Alejandra, a security guard mending a broken heart, grapples to overcome a hidden personal tragedy. Roman, a mountain climbing enthusiast and flight attendant, panics that he is being perilously stalked. Crystal, a beauty blogger and charity director, tends to crash into the lives of others. Diego, a graphic artist and business owner, yearns for renewed creative inspiration while he tries to protect his sister. Sparrow and Spence, a strange couple with abundant tricks, shamelessly seek new business investors.
"Lurking on the Precipice" is a captivating and complex mystery novel, the follow-up to the debut of Pari Malik in "Lurking on the Tightrope: Mystery at Diamond Head."
