Sinopsis

The Abbotts travel to Texas and their dachshund finds a dead body in a mystery starring “one of the more interesting married teams of detectives” (Thrilling Detective).   When Jean Abbott arrives in Dallas to join her private investigator husband, Pat, she’s disappointed to discover that their dog, Pancho, is not welcome at the hotel. She finds a temporary place for him with the daughter of Pat’s wealthy client, oilman Iles Dollahan. Then little Pancho comes across a corpse on the secretive family’s property—and the Dollahans put the pressure on to presume the death an accident so that it will be swiftly forgotten. With no obvious suspects to suggest murder, that could be a possibility—until Pat finds a will that changes everything . . .  Praise for the Pat and Jean Abbott Mysteries “Lively and exciting.” —The New York Times   “Well-plotted and mystifying.” —Saturday Review   “Quite good.” —The Miami News

    It’s every parent’s worst nightmare. 
    In only a few months, the small town of Hagen has lost two high school seniors, both under strange circumstances. When a third senior, the mayor’s son, drives through the plate glass window of the town’s diner and ends up in a coma, the deaths no longer seem unrelated accidents. The town is paralyzed with fear. The police can find no good explanation. Other students deny any knowledge of what’s happening, but Detective Kylie Milliard is certain at least some are lying. 
    Hagen’s sole investigator, Kylie Milliard fears that something sinister is at play, but she can’t convince the town’s powers that be to take her concerns seriously. Mounting discord between herself and Hagen’s sheriff have her thinking that it may be time to leave Hagen for a bigger city and a new job, but she’s not going anywhere until she determines the connection between the self-destructive act of the mayor’s son and the two untimely deaths. 
    Whoever is behind the dangerous stunts doesn’t want to be discovered. To keep their secret, they’re willing to take out anyone who gets too close. With time running out before the next stunt, Kylie is in a race to solve the puzzle. She is all too clear that, until she does, no one—not the students, nor the town—is safe from danger. 
    “Danielle Girard is a phenomenal writer. In Up Close, her insightful and compulsively readable new novel, she creates a vivid portrait of a tight-knit small town grappling with a series of teenage deaths. Accidents or murder? Girard keeps you guessing until the final, breathtaking twist.”
