β¦ Synopsis
A single mom and rookie PI attends a wedding that goes terribly wrong in this "captivating" story in the Agatha Award nominated series (Tracy Weber, author of the Downward Dog Mysteries).
Single mother and private investigator Nicki Valentine rarely gets time off, so attending a wedding with her superhot colleague Dean sounds dreamy. But things turn nightmarish when the groomβa soon-to-be transplant donorβdisappears, and Nicki and Dean commit to a partnership they never planned.
Together, they examine the groom's unfulfilled promises, including one to his mom, a psychic medium with an unusual health need. As family secrets emerge, Nicki must face questions about her late husband, whose long-ago betrayal still threatens to cloud her judgment.
With support from her pole-dancing best friend, her always-on-call family, and the loves of her life (her two kidsβand possibly Dean), Nicki must uncover the groom's demons while conquering her own.
"This breezy second outing (after the Agatha Award nominated Finding Sky) features an enchanting amateur sleuth with dear friends and family who have her back at all times." βLibrary Journal
"O'Brien combines humor, wit, wisdom, and suspense in a captivating story involving a rookie PI struggling to balance the demands of crime solving and single motherhood. No cookie-cutter mystery here." βTracy Weber, author of the award-winning Downward Dog Mysteries
