Secrets of the South Mysteries #3
After being jilted by his fiancee, Michael Preston, a
former
accountant, pursues a new job as a private investigator.
And, what better place to work than the new office of
Price
Investigations in Natchez, Mississippi? Unfortunately,
Michael's partner, Elizabeth Kirby--a crack shot ex-cop
with
a past she wants to escape--resents having to work with
someone whose only surveillance experience comes from
television and video games.
Their boss and his
wife, Nate and Isabelle, are two insanely
busy newlyweds who are "forced" by their friends to
finally
take their honeymoon. However, their romantic trip to
Alabama turns into an investigation when they bump into
Izzy's ex-husband, Craig, who seems to have taken up his
gambling addiction once again. In an attempt to save
Craig,
Izzy discovers her ex doesn't hold all the cards.
Back in Mississippi, Michael and Beth are left to take
on
their first case when a preacher allegedly commits
suicide.
His widow suspects foul play, but things look grim when
Michael discovers the Reverend may have been stealing
from
his congregation.
Will Nate, his wife, and his
employees be able to uncover
the true face of deceit behind the masks that surround
them?
