About this book
Private Investigator Regan Reilly and her husband Jack, head of the NYPD Major Case Squad, are in Los Angeles where Jack is attending a business conference. After the conference, Jack and Regan plan to take off in their rental car for a mini vacation.
In downtown L.A., Regan runs into an old acquaintance and takes her up on an invitation to a dinner party. As they reconnect, Regan realizes that her friend Zelda's life has changed drastically since they last spoke. First, Zelda was left a considerable chunk of change by a neighbor she barely knew. Then she began her new career as a life coach. Most shockingly, she's learned that her father and his new girlfriend just had a spur-of-the-moment wedding at a drive-through chapel in Vegas! Zelda asks Regan to do a simple background check on her father's new wife. But before she can start, Regan gets sidetracked by a poisoning, a murder attempt, and a scam more despicable than she ever could have imagined! Will Regan ever get to enjoy her vacation with Jack?
