Monkeyshine

by J.J. Peters

Monkeyshine is the toy of the decade, a billion-dollar phenomenon that catapults a Seattle company and its greedy executives to the top of corporate America. But this toy has a dirty secret, and some people will stop at nothing to protect it. When the company chemist is murdered, his grieving fiancée, Shelby Rosen, needs to learn why. Did he uncover a secret that could destroy the world’s largest toy company? Faced with skepticism from homicide detectives who believe they have nabbed the killer, Shelby races from Seattle to Kauai and then back to south Puget Sound, piecing together clues the chemist left behind. But in her quest for the truth, Shelby puts her three-year-old nephew in jeopardy, and now she must fight to save him from those who will resort to kidnapping and murder to protect their careers, their prestige, and the wealth they owe to a toy called Monkeyshine. A PNWA finalist, this is J.J. Peters' first published novel.
