A stuntwoman hunts down a killer at a Buddhist retreat in this “engaging” mystery by the Anthony Award–winning author of the Jill Smith series (Booklist).

Darcy Lott can stare down any risky physical feat—until a stunt gone awry leaves the daredevil vulnerable to her phobias. With a crisis in confidence, Darcy calls upon her Buddhist beliefs, and heads to a monastery in the California redwoods for a soothing two–week getaway. What she finds is anything but soul–centering. Not long after she arrives, an attempt is made on the roshi’s life, and Darcy herself is threatened.

It seems the remote haven is brimming with secrets, and still shadowed by a mystery someone wants to keep buried—that of a Zen student who disappeared six years before. As harsh weather prevents anyone from leaving, Darcy finds herself in an increasingly dangerous trap. Someone is meditating about murder. Now, to find a killer among the followers she must face her own fears if she wants to make it out of this sanctuary alive.

Darcy Lott - What A Plot!

Enjoyed this! Had everything in it you could ask for - mystery, Zen Buddhism, bad guys, good guys. You could point the finger at any one of them...except for Darcy of course.

Liked it so much I bought the second one!

best to know about Zen

To really enjoy this book I think a reader needs to know a lot more about Zen than the average person does. Either that or an overview of Zen and some definitions of terms should have been included.

I have enjoyed Susan Dunlap's books in the past, and I was pleased to find that she was writing again. Unlike other reviewers, I liked "A Single Eye". I was drawn into the story right away, and I believe that part of Darcy's reasons for going to the retreat are unresolved feelings of guilt that she wasn't able to enter the woods to help her friend. I liked the characters, I liked the settings, and I believe that some of the other reviewers may be unrealistically critical about a new character. A new character almost never springs from its creators mind fully fledged: there are almost always rough edges. I could overlook some of the flaws, and could see the promise of this character. I liked Darcy, and I look forward to spending alot more time with her through Ms. Dunlap's books.

I was really disappointed in this book. I have read Susan Dunlap's books in the past and have really enjoyed them. This one was very boring. The main character was supposed to be a person learned in Zen. But she did not act true to life for such a character. She neglected duties that she was supposed to be doing and skipped parts of the Zen programs that she was there to do. The writing was disjointed and could not hold my interest. In the end, I was relieved to just finish the book finally. I am so sorry that I probably won't read the other Darcy Lott book.

This crime drama takes place during a Zen sessin in a remote wilderness. Darcy Lott is there, and solves the mystery. Some significant Buddhist teaching is woven into the drama.
