Three cases. One body. Zero chance of staying out of trouble.
Kate
Tessler may have thought her days of chasing danger were over. But the
former war correspondent’s “retirement” in sunny Paradise, Arizona, is
anything but quiet. With her eccentric circle of friends and colleagues,
Kate has built a new life—full of mysteries, mayhem, and the occasional
stakeout—as she works towards earning her PI license.
After
wrapping her last case, Kate wonders what’s next when three cases—all
brought by friends—fall into her lap. Squatters in a snowbird’s house,
local pedigree dogs disappearing, and smash and grab burglaries at local
pot shops. Kate juggles the cases with help from her usual cast of
amateur crime solvers, including the teen sons of Paradise’s mayor. As
she digs, Kate suspects at least two cases are connected.
But
things turn deadly when a late-night stakeout leads Kate and one teen
sidekick, interested in investigative work, straight to a body. Was it a
gruesome accident—or something far more sinister?
My Review:
A great addition to the Accidental Detective series.
Working towards her PI license, Kate Tessler, takes on several new cases which may or may not be connected. With the help of her family and friends, Kate gets to business solving the crimes. I totally enjoyed this fast-paced and unpredictable book. The writing is really good and the characters feel like old friends that I can’t wait to catch up with. I hope there will be more to this series as I always enjoy the books.
