Synopsis

A San Francisco couple sorts through scandals to find a killer in this classic mystery starring “one of the more interesting married teams of detectives” (Thrilling Detective). 
 
Pat and Jean Abbott’s new San Francisco neighbors give new meaning to the term dysfunctional family. And now, amid the mess of exes, stepchildren, rivalries, and resentments, there’s been a tragic death—little Lisa, a vulnerable ten-year-old, has fatally overdosed on cough medicine. 
 
When one of the grown daughters of the patriarch, Dr. Alby—who prescribed the narcotic himself—asks private investigator Pat to look into the suspicious circumstances, he and Jean will find that everyone from a heartless beauty to a handsome womanizer may be behind this crime, and that they themselves are in danger of being caught up in a deadly family drama . . . 
 
Praise for the Pat and Jean Abbott Mysteries

    Do your job or move along already. Trouble is, I'm in too deep to do either one. 
    A year into Samantha True’s forensic photography classes she knows three things: 
    1.   Crime scenes are messy.  
    2.   Especially when you throw up on them. 
    3.   She may not be cut out for this. 
    When the police drag her to an investigation, she’s just as baffled by the scene. With clues like superhero masks, disco balls, and Bigfoot, are they ever going to find who did it?  
    As she digs deeper into the photographic evidence, she realizes her small town is full of secrets. And she might be happier staying in the dark.  
    A laugh-out-loud mystery that will keep you guessing and quickly turning the pages. One Hit Wonder offers the just right reader escape, but fair warning, this book leaves readers wanting more.

A few hours later, when the woman falls to her death from a beach condo balcony, Rena finds herself switching directions with her investigation.

Reese knows this town like the back of her hand—but when she teams up with a State police officer, she quickly realizes she’ll have to branch out to other areas, way out of her comfort zone.
