The Sterling Inheritance

Private Investigator Jason Wilder has the toughest boss in River City. His own mother. And given the choice, he'd rather just play guitar. But gigs are sometimes few and far between in a middle-sized city. Jason's lucky that his parents not only taught him the tricks of the detective trade, but have been willing to provide him with a day job (that often turns into a day-and-night job) between engagements. Life with his mother is adventurous, no denying that. From a routine search for the man who pulled a knife on him to exploding offices, continual arrests, a mysterious woman who keeps bobbing up, a dilapidated theater, and a grisly murder, Jason's life keeps getting more complicated. But at least he's gotten a music job out of it. Or has he? Filled with great characters and ongoing action, and spiced with low-key humor, this debut mystery will have readers and critics alike singing Siverling's praises.
