Sara Cain isn't your typical thirty-two-year-old woman. Murder detective by day, writer and... sleuth by night? Just as long as there's enough coffee to keep her going...
When her first novel gives her trouble, Sara goes for a walk to clear her writer's block and ends up stumbling right into a real-life murder mystery. Magnum, an adventurous beagle, comes running off leash toward her in the local park, and she returns him home only to find his master dead on the entry floor.
Cliff Cunningham was a championship bowler with a mean streak and a temper, and police are pegging his Golden Pin bowling trophy as the murder weapon. While any number of people could have clocked a strike by knocking him on the noggin, the prime suspect is a friend of Sara's mother-and she expects Sara to prove the woman's innocence. A tall order, as the case isn't officially hers and belongs to a rival detective.
But a promise is a promise, and Sara soon finds herself sleuthing undercover-and off the clock-in a world of polyester shirts and rental shoes. It's not all bad, though, as she's taking her friend and partner Sean McKinley along for the ride. They are better together than they've ever been split, and they're not amateurs at finding killers.
Despite being up against small-town hijinks and colorful characters who threaten to roll their efforts into the gutter, they are having fun. That is, until they get close to the killer and a dangerous twist puts their lives at risk.
A completely addictive caper full of twists that offers up a serving of murder, a dollop of romance, and a dash of humor. This perfect blend of robust and sweet is bound to hit the spot with readers who are fans of Verity Bright, Tonya Kappes, and Agatha Frost.
