Sinopse

Is Smitty a professional hitman? A spy? A private detective? A protector of the weak and innocent?
 
No one knows. But whatever Smitty is, know that he is very good at whatever hat decides to wear that day. These twenty-six short stories feature the anti-hero as he seeks out his prey with ruthless determination.
 
When Smitty finds his target, they should pray that they're not in his gunsights. Because if they are, it’s guaranteed they will not see the next sunrise.

    The local university’s Shakespeare troupe already had plenty of drama. Then their manager was murdered. 
    Fresh off her election win, Fenway Stevenson is ready to focus on her job as county coroner. But just hours after claiming victory, she's called to Nidever University, where the manager of a Shakespeare production has been found dead in a stairwell. The scene looks accidental—until Fenway spots signs of a struggle. 
    As the investigation unfolds, it's clear Jessica Marquez's death is no simple fall. Secrets swirl behind the curtain of the Merchant of Venice production, and Fenway begins to suspect the theater's drama didn't stop on stage. 
    Meanwhile, Fenway's father—still in jail following his shocking arrest for murder—casts a long shadow over her every move. Old wounds reopen, and a painful chapter from Fenway's past resurfaces in the form of a professor with dark secrets. 
    With her father behind bars, her relationship with the sheriff unraveling, and a murder investigation that's starting to smell like a political setup, Fenway must walk the razor-thin line between personal loyalty and professional duty. But in a town where alliances shift like sand and danger hides in plain sight, will Fenway's determination be enough to uncover the truth before someone else winds up dead? 
    Smart, suspenseful, and layered with emotional depth, The Upstaged Coroner is the fourth installment in the gripping Fenway Stevenson Mystery Series. Perfect for fans of Patricia Cornwell, J.D. Robb, and Louise Penny, this page-turner weaves forensic science, complex characters, and shocking twists into an unforgettable story. 
    The stage is set. The players are in motion. And Fenway is running out of time.
