WhatâÇÖs more, sheâÇÖd seen the very same man having a very public altercation with his wife just the night before. Despite being warned off the case by the local sheriff, Andi Grace canâÇÖt help nosing around to find out whoâÇÖs behind the foul deed.áIt turns out the victim was a well-known radio personality who focused on cold-case investigations and was rumored to be breaking a huge story on his next show. As Andi Grace digs deeper to learn who may have wanted him dead, sheâÇÖs faced with a suspect list that includes a cold-hearted widow who stands to inherit a bundle, a local country star with family demons to hide, and any number of unknown criminals who may have been the focus of the victimâÇÖs big reveal. Whether the motive was love gone bad, a career under duress, or a killerâÇÖs deadly secret, Andi Grace knows sheâÇÖll have to act fast before she becomes the next cold case herself . . .áPraise for the Books of Jackie Laytoná'Andi Grace is adorable, resilient, and has a doggedly curious need to solve a murder.
