The Candace Starr Series
Candace Starr likes to think of herself as retired since she got out of prison. ThatââŹâ˘s until society maven Kristina Corrigan tries to hire her to permanently remove her daughterââŹâ˘s barnacle of a boyfriend, Tyler Brent, from their lives. The only catch? Tyler is seventeen years old. Even Candace usually draws the line at taking out a target who doesnââŹâ˘t shave yet. But when Tyler turns up dead at a river gorge with a broken neck, people start asking questions. Detective Chien-Shiung Malone, the ambitious cop assigned to the case, has more than a few of her own. Candace is not about to provide any answers thoughââŹâuntil Malone makes her a proposition she cannot refuse. Candace signs on as MaloneââŹâ˘s unofficial partner to find TylerââŹâ˘s murderer, despite the possibility she may have killed the boy herself. With scandalous wit and cocky satire, the first novel in the Candace Starr series provides full-throttle thrills as Starr and Malone race down the dark and dangerous road to the truth. Everyone along for the ride will be scrambling to call shotgun.
