Rose and Ivy want nothing more than to find their missing father. So when Connor Chase bursts into their dad's detective agency, claiming he's been poisoned, they're wary. His story is suspicious. Why not go to the cops—or a hospital? When he insists he won't be the only victim, they take the case.
It turns out their new client is a known liar, and maybe his so-called murder is yet another fib. But before they can fire him, he's stabbed to death.
He was days away from marrying a local heiress in a lavish wedding. Maybe he pushed the wrong person too far: the bride, the wedding planner, the wealthy father-in-law, or the many victims of his lies. More importantly, his final warning stands—someone else will die.
Losing a client isn't a good look. With their reputation on the line, Rose and Ivy must untangle the lies before someone else dies.
Don't miss the second installment of this fast-paced, odd-couple mystery series for fans of Janet Evanovich and TV's Veronica Mars and Castle.
Alicia Ellis decided to write books about ten minutes before graduating from law school. She’s now an Atlanta attorney moonlighting as an author, electronics junkie, and secret superhero. With two degrees in computer science and an MFA in Writing Popular Fiction, she loves creative problem-solving, especially as it relates to high-tech things. She writes mysteries, sometimes for young adults, sometimes in fantasy or science fiction settings, and sometimes in the real world.
Alicia's debut novel, Girl of Flesh and Metal, a young adult sci-fi mystery, was the first self-published book ever to make the American Library Association’s LITA Excellence in Children’s and Young Adult Science Fiction Notable Lists.
