#1 New York Times and USA Today bestselling author Lucy Score thrills with a brand new installment in her hilariously riveting romcom mystery series, featuring quirky clairvoyant sleuth Riley Thorn and her detective boyfriend Nick Santiago.
Her spray-tanned, self-absorbed morning news anchor ex-husband careening back into her life in a bullet-ridden car begging for help was not on Riley Thorn’s bingo card. However, her hot private investigator boyfriend Nick Santiago refusing to take the job is…well, less of a surprise.
Too bad for Nick that his octogenarian business partner, Mrs. Penny, overrules him and decides to take the lead on the case. And when a dead body makes it clear someone really is out to get Riley’s ex, the mile-long suspect list puts all hands on deck at Santiago Investigations. Even the wrinkly, retired ones. With Nick and Riley busy interviewing suspects, their elderly roommates wreak havoc in the surveillance department.
It’s only a matter of time before Riley’s ex brings danger directly to her doorstep. Can she block out the chaos and focus on her psychic visions long enough to narrow down the list of suspects, or will Griffin Gentry’s karma be the downfall of them all?
