When Sarah receives a phone call from her cousin, Bonnie Malloy, asking for a mysterious favor, Sarah cannot refuse. Family is family after all. After promising her husband Detective Conrad Spencer that she would give up being a cop, Sarah and Amanda decide to embark on the long road trip to a small farm town in Michigan. But the trip shifts quickly from a family friendly visit into a deadly disaster when a man is found dead inside Bonnie’s toy store.
An Explosive Cousin
As Sarah and Amanda work with the local authorities to get to the bottom of the murder, Sarah tries to juggle being both a retired detective and a family member dealing with Bonnie’s explosive emotions. The evidence grows more malicious as snarky politicians, shady business people, and stone-cold hired killers are added to the suspect list, and the residents of the small farm town busy themselves with pointing the blame on each other.
A Deadly Deception
When the local detective becomes convinced that Sarah’s cousin Bonnie is the killer, Sarah finds herself calling again on her instincts as a cop, as well as her friends Amanda and Detective Pete to help solve the murder. Can Sarah keep her cousin out of jail and find the true killer of the toy shop murder?
