Good little boys aren’t supposed to play with fire.
While on stakeout to catch the cretin who’s stalking a client, Private Investigator Candice Shane finds a house on fire--at midnight. A little girl’s tricycle in the yard prompts her hasty decision to break in, saving a sleeping woman and her three children.
The husband is out of town. Candice is hired by the grateful woman to clear her husband from police suspicion and to find out who wants them dead.
Fingerprints on the circuit breaker box connects the arson to two neighborhood boys, yet the troubled 12-year-old son mumbles the name Zane as he runs out of his smoke-filled bedroom.
Clearing the husband is easy. Finding Zane, the kid who is seemingly behind the ring of juvenile fire-setters, takes old-fashion, shoe-leather-thinning detective work, and luck.
Staying alive while doing it takes a lot more. Having her ex-boyfriend who’s a cop helps, but even Alex can’t stop the bullets from coming through Candice’s kitchen window. He can’t stop her apartment from burning. And he can’t stop her heart from falling in love with him all over again.

Silk scarves are meant to be worn around the neck. Just not tight enough to kill. Women are being murdered. Matching Paisley patterned silk scarves, missing wedding rings, and blood alcohol contents beyond absurdity are enough to link the dead women together.

Her friend’s body was the last woman found—and Lisa Ann might’ve seen the killer. Each clue takes Candice dangerously closer to The Silk Strangler.

Then she meets Cal: tall, brooding, and all cowboy. Sara falls for Cal and the quiet ranch life, but with each song she writes her time there draws to a close.
