EBOOK DESCRIPTION: |
|
K. K. Beck's Jane da Silva would rather pack a nice piece of Vuitton luggage than a .38. Unfortunately. investigating cases for her family's nonprofit Bureau for Righting Wrongs is the only way she can collect on her trust fund and leave her other career, lounge singing, in the dust. Now with the detective business in a slump and her bank balance in the red, Jane is singing the blues -- and longing to hop on the trail of either a killer or an attractive man. In her latest adventure, at least one of them is bound to come along.
Jane is back belting out standards, this time at a seafood convention in Seattle, when frightened screams interrupt her rendition of Smoke Gets in Your Eyes . A very dead blonde is found in the bathtub of the hotel's hospitality suite. With the girl's grieving parents asking Jane to investigate their estranged daughter's life and death -- and her gig about to go to a synthesizer -- Jane starts making inquiries.
Posing as a freelancer for an industry magazine, she takes a crash course in fish and nets some suspects. The list includes the victim's squirrelly unemployed boyfriend; a Norwegian bureaucrat on a binge who was seen romancing the victim; a lovable Shetland Islands salmon farmer; a mysterious Swiss who enters and leaves locked hotel rooms without a key; and Don and Bob, a pair of tough and eccentric Alaskan fishermen brothers. They'll have her globetrotting from downtown Seattle to Scotland's Shetland Islands to icy Arctic fjords...and toward a confrontation with either a killer, a bizarre secret that's rocking the salmon industry, or a whole shipload of red herrings. |
