Beschreibung

Private investigation is the Lundegaard family business. It passed down from Dorothy's father to her brother John. But, technically, it didn't pass down to her.
 
Still, when an interview for a more appropriate job for a young woman in the late 1930s St. Paul, Minnesota, leaves Dorothy burning in anger and rejection, a case for her brother's business literally falls at her feet.
 
A desperate woman needs help. And despite her lack of means, John Lundegaard is on the case. Saving her farm and her family just might be something he can pull off.
 
But not without his sister Dorothy's own unique set of skills.
 
"The Surviving Wife," a short story in the continuing Dorothy Lundegaard Mysteries.

    —Reader review for Only Murder
    ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
    
    WITH MALICE is book #1 in a new series by #1 bestselling and critically acclaimed mystery and suspense author Rylie Dark, whose books have received over 2,000 five-star reviews and ratings. 
    
    FBI Special Agent Maeve Sharp never got over her sister’s disappearance when they were teenagers, the case gone cold, the feeling that just maybe she is still out there, somewhere. It ruined her family and destroyed her father who, once a decorated cop on the LVPD, now sits alone in a dilapidated trailer in the middle of nowhere, refusing to reconcile with her. It wrecked her brother, too, leading to lockup after lockup, as he pleads with Maeve to help get her out. And it wrecked her mom most of all, who in her dying days can think of nothing else.
    
    Maeve though she got away from it all when she transferred to Quantico and made a career for herself.
    
    But the past has a way of calling, of bringing back dark and unresolved memories. And Maeve has stepped right back into, ready, this time, to wrestle her darkest demons while she hunts down new serial killers….
    
    A cat-and-mouse thriller with harrowing twists and turns and filled with heart-pounding suspense, the MAEVE SHARP mystery series offers a fresh twist on the genre as it introduces two brilliant protagonists who will make you fall in love and keep you turning pages late into the night.
    
    Future books in the series are also available.

    "An armchair travelers delight" —Publishers Weekly 
     
     
     
    One dead art collector and a gallery of suspects. This romantic weekend just turned deadly . . . 
     
     
     
    Translator Rick Montoya is looking forward to a quiet weekend away with his girlfriend, Betta, an art fraud investigator for the Italian Culture Ministry. Their destination: the beautiful village of Urbino, home to Renaissance masters Rafael and the lesser-known Piero della Francesca. While Betta does have official business to attend to—namely, collecting a priceless Piero drawing from a wealthy Spanish collector on the ministry's behalf—she asks Rick to join her "in case she needs an interpreter," but with other, less-official intentions in mind. 
     
     
     
    When the Spaniard is found murdered and the drawing stolen, Betta must shift back into art cop mode, and Rick's official services are required after all. As they set out to discover the identity of the killer and the whereabouts of the stolen sketch, they are drawn from Urbino's cobbled streets to eastern Tuscany and back as the list of suspects grows longer—and more dangerous. Will this lovers' getaway literally be to die for?
