Milwaukee Autumns Can Be Lethal - An Avalon Mystery

Legally Dead

Lawyer turned legal researcher and amateur sleuth, Beth Hartley is hired to do some work for an old law-school acquaintance, Don Balstrum. But when she finds Don murdered in his office, her meticulous mind for details leads her immediately on the path of a complex crime.

With her tenacity and insight into the legal profession, she soon opens many dark doors into Don's world: his unforgiving father, his antagonistic twin brother, his cagey business partners and his ex-wife all have secrets to hide. Soon a ruthless and tragic picture of money laundering, blackmail, embezzlement and broken hearts begins to emerge. Warning notes to back off — or else — tell Beth she's treading on dangerous ground. And her next step may put her face-to-face with a killer.
