The Case of the Mystified M.D.

First a foot, now a hand. What body part is next?

When her puppy finds a severed hand on a walking trail, Glory Harper is positive the signet ring belongs to a missing college professor who caused a lot of trouble around town before he disappeared. With her sister, Jane, overwhelmed by trouble with her fiancé and an arson fire in her home, Glory determines to uncover the identity of the murderer in spite of objections from Detective Rick Spencer.

She soon latches onto an unlikely partner, and in short order the feisty grandma is awash in secrets, blackmail, and arson. She feels as though she's stepped into the Twilight Zone―where nothing is as it appears and danger lurks around every corner . . . including from Spencer himself. Will Glory―and her relationship with Spencer―survive another murder case?
