    Stiletto is a timely, fast-paced, feminine mystery told in two diverse voices—a tense, erotic duet between the sharp, intuitive Detective Anna Crane and her prime suspect, the brilliant biochemist Eleanor Kiernan. Both women are haunted by the tragic loss of a sibling, but Kiernan's twin brother died of an overdose of the opiate she helped to create. 
     
     
     
    When a Big Pharma exec, Leo Cushman, is fatally stabbed, there are many other suspects: Obliterate Opiates activists, a disinherited ex-wife and stepson, a secret lover, an addict vowing vengeance. But Detective Crane prioritizes investigating Kiernan in her first high-profile case, even as she is unexpectedly drawn to her suspect. Can an antagonist also be an ally? Can a young detective be seduced by a murderer? 
     
     
     
    A cinematic, stylish psychological thriller, Stiletto is a suspenseful cross between the sensual obsessions of Killing Eve and the compelling drama of the award-winning television series Dopesick that exposes the greed of Big Pharma and its guilt in marketing an opiate that kills over 100,000 a year. But the real mystery in Stiletto is what its two protagonists discover as its twisting plot unfolds—about the real crime and about themselves.

    Enforcer and drug dealer Fernando has seen better days. On his way home from work, some heavily-tattooed gangsters throw him in the back of a car and take him to an abandoned house, where they saw off his friend's head and feed the kid's fingers to...something. Their message is clear: this is their territory, now. But Fernando isn't put down that easily. Using the assistance of a Santeria priestess, an insane Puerto Rican pop sensation, a very human dog, and a Russian hitman, he'll build the courage (and firepower) he'll need to fight a gangbanger who's a bit more than human...

    When prominent defense attorney Marcus Halloway is found murdered in his study, the irony isn’t lost on anyone—he made his career saving guilty men with airtight alibis. But now, every one of his former clients is a suspect, and each of them swears they were nowhere near him the night he died. 
    Detective Clara Jennings is called to the case, but the deeper she digs, the murkier it becomes. Marcus kept secrets: hidden files, hushed meetings, and an alibi of his own that doesn’t quite add up. With enemies on both sides of the law, the question isn’t who wanted him dead—it’s who got to him first. 
    As time runs out and the web of lies grows tighter, Clara must untangle a puzzle where every suspect has a story, every story has a flaw, and the truth might be the deadliest alibi of all. 
    The Last Alibi is a taut, twist-filled murder mystery where justice and deception are two sides of the same coin.
