Can you always trust the evidence? “Bendelow proves her experience as a SOCO makes for a brilliant novel . . . stunning.” —Lynda La Plante, Edgar Award–winning author of Prime Suspect Maya Barton has just embarked on her dream job as a scene of crime officer, and she’s already facing a tough challenge. When she attends her first death, the post-mortem deems it to be non-suspicious and the case is closed. But despite the lack of evidence, she suspects a crime has been committed. Meanwhile, the police focus on a mission to bring a criminal gang to justice. When Maya is called to another apparent sudden death her reservations resurface. She’s convinced a killer is on the loose—a killer who has evaded suspicion until now—but Maya’s series of mistakes alienate those around her. As she and her colleagues are drawn further into their investigations, they end up putting themselves in grave danger. Can Maya catch a killer and escape from her troubled past, or will the skeletons in her closet come back to haunt her? Who can Maya really trust—and who will make it out alive?

Book Description
An homage to Dashell Hammet’s Thin Man movies with a modern day spin on Nick and Nora Charles. When her career is outsourced to Asia, fledgling romance author and empty-nester Gracie Elliott wants a job that will allow her time to write. So she opens Relatively Speaking, becoming a wing woman to the senior set. Since her clients need several hours each morning to find their teeth, lube their creaky joints, and deal with lower GI necessities, and they always turn in after the early bird specials, she has plenty of time to pen her future bestsellers. Gracie deliberately avoids mentioning her new business venture to husband Blake until after she signs her first client. Blake joins the company as a not-so-silent partner, tagging along to make sure Gracie doesn’t cause a septuagenarian uprising. When Client #13 is found murdered in the parking lot behind the Moose Lodge, Gracie knows, no matter how much Blake protests otherwise, she can’t wait around for the police to find the killer if she wants to save her livelihood. Keywords: murder mystery, amateur sleuth, female protagonist, humorous, contemporary, romance, dating, comedy
