Description

"A headless corpse in a dumpster unites a small-town cop and a formidable retired lady spy to track a killer in a wealthy New England neighborhood. A decapitated body burned to a crisp might be found in any dumpster in any city in America, but not in the aristocratic Gold Coast of Westport, Connecticut, home to the wealthy and powerful. Westport cop Tony DeFranco dutifully collects evidence, knowing that the State Police will take over the case. But when the State investigator covers up the murder, DeFranco starts a rogue investigation. DeFranco forms an alliance with retired CIA officer Dasha Petrov, whose elderly, ladylike appearance masks a lifetime's experience with violence and deception. As the body count mounts, DeFranco relies on Dasha's insights and skills acquired over decades of global troubleshooting to stop a killer operating in the center of American wealth and power. A glimpse at the sordid underside of money, position, and power, The Sea Glass Murders is an action-oriented mystery with an immersive, fast-paced plot and intriguing characterization"--
