About

He may have jumped. He may have been pushed. Can this mother-daughter sleuth team find the truth? "Weaves mystery, suspense and humor in equal measure." -Val Penny, author of Hunter's Chase


This audiobook is narrated using advanced digital voice technology for clear, natural-sounding storytelling.


Isabel Long is still suffering from the injuries of her last investigation. But that doesn't stop her from working at a bar or taking on a new case from Gary Beaumont, a local drug dealer who once terrorized her. Certain his half-brother didn't jump off a bridge, Gary is convinced somebody pushed him.

With some investigative help from her ninety-three-year-old mother, Isabel soon unearths a list of suspects, including Gary's business associates and a famous poet who plagiarized his brother's work for an award-winning book.

But as Isabel gets embroiled in a twisted game of cat and mouse, she had better be sure she doesn't end up caught in a trap . . .

"A twisty small-town mystery that stays with you." -J. V. Baptie, author of The Forgotten

"Wonderful characters . . . well worth your time." -Joseph Lewis, author of Spiral into Darkness
