Trespass

by Gail Matelson

On one side of town, in an expensive, upscale neighborhood of Los Angeles, Shelly Bradshaw and Tina Goodwin were becoming fast friends, conspiring together in an attempt to live their best lives.

On the other side of town, on the campus of the University of California at Los Angeles, Mele Williams and Brant Derwin were quickly developing a romantic relationship, one that would not end in a predictable manner!

How these two parallel events collide years later is a deadly mystery, one that can only be revealed when the four lives intersect!!

Watch for a mitigating factor that may be relevant… a married woman risks her freedom, as well as her family’s stability, in order to satisfy her compulsive desire to sneak into a specific mansion when the occupants are gone.

Included is a preview of the murder mystery, “The Body.”

About the author

It wasn't until I returned from a year-long, solo driving trip around the United States that I wrote my first book, a personal memoir that I haven't as yet published. Thoroughly enjoying the experience of writing, I spontaneously wrote my first mystery novel. The experience was so 'novel', the characters so willing to tell their own story, that I never stopped writing. Twenty-one books and seventeen years later, my unique stories cover a wide spectrum, from humorous metaphysical fantasy in "Last 90 Days, Archie Trilogy Book 1," and magical realism in "Between the Trees," to a psychological thriller in "The Building." Blending multiple genres, my stories have inspiring stories of transformation, as well as humorous and romantic threads woven into the plots.
