other
couples that have their moments) with a frightening
mystery

guy ... this one I never saw coming.

survival on several levels with lovers learning to love
and
accept each other and a mystery that is intriguing THE
DEAD
PLAY ON will fill the bill nicely.
Musicians are being murdered in New Orleans, but Arnie
Watson apparently died by his own hand. When Tyler
Anderson
plays the saxophone he inherited from Arnie, he believes
he
sees visions of his friend's life—and death. He becomes
convinced Arnie was murdered and that the instrument had
something to do with it, and with whatever's happening all
over the city...
Tyler knows his theory sounds crazy, so he approaches
Danni
Cafferty, hoping she and Michael Quinn will find out what
the cops couldn't. Or wouldn't. After all, Cafferty and
Quinn have become famous for solving unusual crimes.
They're partners in their personal lives, too. Quinn's a
private investigator and Danni works with him. When they
look into the case, they discover a secret lover of
Arnie's
and a history of jealousies and old hatreds that leads
them
back to the band Arnie once played with—and Tyler plays
with
now.
And they discover that, sometimes, the line between
passion
and obsession is hard to draw.
