Chad Fresno comes home from work and finds a dead teenage girl behind his couch. That's bad enough. Then he realizes he knows her.
The girl is Melody Tobias, the 17-year-old daughter of a prominent state senator-and Chad may know more about the events leading to her death than he would like the police to discover.
What begins as an impossible question-how did Melody's body end up in his living room?-pulls Chad into a tangled investigation involving politics, drugs, family secrets, and people with very good reasons to keep the truth buried.
Fortunately, Chad has help. There's Rachel Bronson, the attractive police officer who quickly becomes considerably more than an investigator, and Sean DeFalco, a former student turned cop who proves more useful than Chad ever expected.
An Unsettled Life is a mystery with a decidedly human streak: part murder investigation, part love story, and part portrait of a man who discovers that solving a murder may be easier than sorting out his own unsettled life.
Funny, irreverent, sometimes dark, and populated by characters who don't always behave the way they're supposed to, An Unsettled Life asks a simple question:
Who killed Melody Tobias-and why was she left in Chad Fresno's house?
