In the rarefied world of Manhattan publishing, most of the intrigue takes place in the books. But all that is about to change for respected editor Jacqueline Blueβ¦ Itβs not easy being one of the few African Americans in an overwhelmingly white industry. Yet, until now, Jackieβs biggest problem has been her unrequited love for Victor Bell, a handsome member of the Black Pack, her weekly professional group. Does Victor prefer tall women? Light- skinned sisters? But then comes the morning her boss is suddenly murdered. It seems that Jackie was the last person to see Annabelle Murray aliveβand the circumstances were not pretty. Jackieβs fingerprints are all over the crime scene and, to make matters worse, she had sworn not to tell anyone why she was invited to her bossβs home in the first place. And just as everything is hitting the fan, Victor asks her out to dinner. Jackie knows that when it rains it poursβbut now sheβs knee-deep in hot waterβand bailing herself out will be the toughest challenge sheβs ever facedβ¦
