No Accounting for Murder

Book excerpt: For Cathedral City private eyes Mason and Amirah Gates, work normally means handling insurance fraud and cheating spouses. Certainly not a murder investigation. But when Leila Nassar’s brother is killed and the police write it off as a simple robbery, she just can’t accept that. What about the threatening emails he received before he died? The police may not believe her, but she trusts Amirah, as a fellow Saudi-American, to discover the truth. With her husband’s support and under his watchful eye, Amirah goes undercover as a temp at the Canfield Corporation, the billion-dollar firm where the victim was conducting a company audit. What she finds points to an inside culprit, a member of upper management… and leads to a near-fatal experience in broad daylight. In the end, with their suspicions guiding them, the couple sets a trap to unmask a wily and dangerous murderer.
