Description
Jeri’s as savvy as Sam Spade, with something of Spade’s seen-it-all outlook. She handles the daily bread and butter without breaking a sweat, and she’s got the street smarts to handle the bad guys, always managing somehow to land a well-deserved punch. What she doesn’t know, her chic lawyer pal, Cassie, can supply, and her cop ex-husband’s on hand to make trouble.
Kindred Crimes
A puzzling missing persons case—a wife who disappears with the grocery money—keeps winding backward, revealing brand new secrets as fast as ancient skeletons can fall out of closets.
Till the Old Men Die
The grisly murder of a sedate, widowed history professor is written off as a random street crime until a woman turns up at his university, claiming to be his widow and demanding access to his “papers.”
Take a Number
Out of loyalty to a former client, Jeri takes on a nasty divorce case. The soon-to-be ex-husband winds up with a bullet in his back, and the prime suspect is Jeri’s client.
Don’t Turn your Back on the Ocean
Jeri is looking to catch a respite from the PI life to relax and visit family in lovely Monterey on the California coast. Now, what’s the worst thing that could happen on a PI’s vacation? A dead body on the beach, most likely.
Nobody’s Child
Is a Jane Doe uncovered at a construction site the body of her client’s long-lost daughter Maureen? If so, what’s become of Maureen’s two-year-old daughter?
A Credible Threat
A UC Berkeley undergrad fears the worst when her shared house receives multiple threats from an unknown antagonizer.
Witness to Evil
A seventeen-year-old that Jeri tracked down when she swiped her mother’s credit card and took off for Paris is now a “person of interest” in a murder case—and, once again, in the wind.
Where the Bodies Are Buried
Jeri’s newest client was about to blow the whistle on a large food manufacturer just before he took a header out his fifth-floor apartment window—but he hadn’t yet told her what it was about. Next step, undercover in the corporate office.
A Killing at the Track
Set in the fascinating and forbidden racetrack backside. Dawson’s complex plot is a pleasure—one dead jockey, then two dead jockeys, three exotic poisons, and several possible payoffs.
