Rest in Pieces

Angie Deacon Mysteries

The murder of a popular eighteen-year-old girl devastates residents of the tight-knit communities surrounding NH’s Lake Winnipesaukee.

When the jury sets the accused man free, it shakes people to their very core. Detective Colby Jarvis blames himself—the witnesses were ineffective; his testimony was weak, the clues inadequate.

The next morning, jigsaw puzzles begin arriving in mailboxes belonging to people related to the trial.

Twelve hours later, deaths begin.

Angie tries to help Jarvis in the case, but she’s mired in her own set of problems.
Her partner Tyson has just been offered his lifelong dream—a part in a Broadway show. She faces running the theater on her own, perhaps forever.
But that’s not the worst of it.

Her demanding mother is back in town, and she’s brought her a boy-toy—a twenty-something statue of Adonis come to life—who decides that he too wants to be a detective.

The puzzle pieces to seemingly random people continue to arrive.

Do they tell a secret someone is desperate to protect?
Were they sent by the accused man recently released from custody?
Or someone with an as yet unknown motive?
