It’s been almost two weeks, and Holloway still isn’t back from his ex-wife’s book tour. To top it off, Miranda is being hounded by her crusty Aunt Lu in Minnesota about her mother’s death. The last thing Miranda wants is to delve into her past again.

Worst of all, Parker has gone on a case without her. Now she’s royally PO’ed.

So PO’ed, she travels to Chicago on her own to prove her mother’s death was an accident and get her aunt off her back.

But was it an accident?

And is the killer now coming after Miranda?

Miranda Gets Caught

An excellent read. Miranda gets in over her head with Parker off on another search. A neurosurgeon with a God complex and a supply of straight jackets terrorizing hospitals. Was Miranda’s mother’s accident really just a stroke of bad luck? And any excuse to rent a Tesla. A necessity for investigating after all. Thanks

Miranda& Parker

I really liked book 18 of this series. Actually I loved each and every one of them. I hope there will be more in this series, especially since Santana is not dead after all. Keep up the good work.

such an interesting concept seeing miranda and parker solve two separate cases individually but i did miss them together. also, really frustrating how miranda is stupid enough to just jump to the conclusion that santana has been “eaten by bears” — easily falling for what he wants them both to think — when she’s much smarter than that.

Always a 5 star author for me. Love this series and hope for many more adventures with Miranda and Parker. Not as in love with them working separately but still just as intriguing. These books keep me up all night.
