Inspired by a handwritten note from his idol, Frank Lloyd Wright, MerlinRichards sets off from the Welsh valleys to the Arizona desert to launch hisarchitectural career. Now here in Wright's note does it say anything aboutmurder. Chasing his dream, Richards arrives at the building site of the Arizona Biltmorehotel, where he meets a beautiful young designer named Rosa Lustig. Likeevery other man in her circle, Merlin is captivated ... but only several hourslater, he is the prime suspect in Rosa's murder. Jealous suitors, envious workers, and the cynical police are all convinced thatMerlin is a killer. He begins to put the pieces of the puzzle together; what hebuilds is not the impressive edifice he came to learn about, but a defence thatwill imprison a murderer.
