Publisher's Synopsis
Captain Jennifer Roberts and her two detectives are doing their best to solve two murders
before Christmas. Between Halloween and Christmas, two people died under mysterious
circumstances.
Victim number one, an innocent mother of two, collapses on the floor of her mother-in-law's
kitchen, and dies on the spot. Victim number two, a not so innocent ex-Marine, dies on the floor
of his ramshackle trailer.
The coroner, Doctor Warren Shanko, determined the cause of both deaths to be from poison
hemlock. The captain, Detective Heidi Stover, and Detective Richard Banker scurry to catch the
perps responsible for the two deaths before any more occur.
