Twenty-nine-year-old, appraisal researcher, Cici Winslow, is evaluating her life choices in the wake of her mother's death and her father's abusive outbursts when she stumbles upon something even more troubling, a murder. Even worse, the intended victim may have been her. Fearing for her safety, CiCi's cop boyfriend, Chad Cooper, warns CiCi not to interfere with the investigation. But when someone ransacks her apartment, she steps up to take matters in hand. As her stubbornness and spunk defy Chad's protective efforts, Cici puts herself in the killer's crosshairs, placing her relationship with Chad on the line as well as her life. In her debut novel, author Shirley Worley offers readers a clean and wholesome murder mystery with small-town charm and Hallmark moments.
