Nina Reilly is back in Lake Tahoe after finally splitting up with her on-again-off-again lover, Paul. Settling into work and dealing with her teenage son, Bob, should be enough chaos in her life. But when her cute, friendly masseuse, Chelsi, talks about needing some legal help, Nina is pulled into a tension-filled case that will involve murder, math and...of course, mayhem.

Elliott is a brilliant mathematician who, along with two fellow students, witnessed a murder. But they weren't supposed to be where they were, so the students high-tailed it out of town, not staying to be witnesses. Now, this attorney (Nina) is trying to draw him back to the case, and Elliott's world is being shaken.

As with all of the Nina Riley books, there's an intriguing plot weaving through CASE OF LIES and pulling the reader deeper into the book with every page turned. An interesting twist to this book is the entry of Bob's real father, Kurt. Could there be an old romance rekindling there? You'll enjoy this smart legal thriller!
