P.I. Sandi Webster was instrumental in putting David Smith in prison for murder. Whatβs he been up to during his prison time? Heβs murdered a guard and escaped, and heβs coming after Sandi.
Stanley Hawks was one of Sandiβs first clients and now works for her as a researcher. He knew about David. Can he help Sandi?
To make matters worse, her menopausal mother, her elderly neighbor, and her closest friend are all in danger because they wonβt leave her side. Are the four women a match for a vengeful killer?
Maybe heβs not a match for them.

Marja McGraw, born and raised in Southern California, is a true Californian. Her family traces back to the 1850βs in Los Angeles. She worked in both criminal and civil law enforcement for several years before relocating to Northern Nevada, where she worked for the Nevada Department of Transportation. She also lived in Oregon where she worked for the Jackson County Sheriffβs Office and owned her own business, a Tea Room/Antique Store. Her next stop was Wasilla, Alaska. The draw to Northern Nevada was strong, and she eventually returned. Marja wrote a weekly column for a small newspaper in No. Nevada and she was the editor for the Sisters in Crime Internet Newsletter for a year and a half. She started a writers' support group a few years ago, along with two other authors, Shirley Kennedy and Larry Wonderling. It was a learning experience rather than a critique group. She belongs to several writer/reader groups. She has appeared on the morning news in Reno, Nevada, and on KLBC-TV in Laughlin, Nevada. Sheβs also been a guest on several radio and Internet radio shows. Starting with Secrets of Holt House, A Mystery, Marja followed up with A Well-Kept Family Secret - A Sandi Webster Mystery and the beginning of a series. Most recently, she began a new series beginning with Bogey Nights β A Bogey Man Mystery. She says that each of her mysteries contains a little humor, a little romance and A Little Murder!, and that her books concentrate on the characters and solving the crime rather than the crime itself. She and her husband currently live in No. Arizona. Marjaβs website can be viewed at www.marjamcgraw.com.
