Murder Most Persuasive

Deadly Relations

Elizabeth Parker has been warned to stop playing detective, but when her cousin Ann becomes a murder suspect, Elizabeth sets out to find the real killer. The victim is Michael Barrow, a man who supposedly stole nearly one million dollars from the family business and disappeared eight years ago. Now everyone has a motive, from Ann's unhappy stepmother to her glamorous sister—who was Michael's fiancée. But Ann was the last person to see Michael alive, and the investigating detective seems determined to prove Ann guilty, even though he and Ann were once in love.

As Elizabeth works to clear Ann's name, she unearths even more family dirt. Soon another killing brings her closer to the truth…and the missing money. But the clever culprit who once got away with murder isn't about to let anything—or anyone—stop him now.
