A tragedy, certainly, but not a crime. Yet Columbia grad student Lena—principled, headstrong, and allergic to the spotlight—knows that can’t be the case. Despite the bitter truth that the two hadn’t spoken in two years, they were half-sisters. Lena knew Desiree. And Desiree would never travel above 125th Street. Something is very wrong with the facts. So why is no one listening?

Publisher's summary
Former reporter Serena “Rena” Manchester has transitioned into her new career as a private detective.

However, a shift occurs one day while she is taking photos of a prominent businessman, Edwin Peters, with his young mistress. When the woman shows up dead, Serena has no doubt that Edwin Peters is the prime suspect.
A monkey wrench is thrown at her theory when Serena realizes her client, Mrs. Judith Peters, has just as much motive to kill the young woman. Rena is going to need her hard-nosed tactics to find a murderer because the suspects keep piling up.
Which one of these people succeeded in killing the troubled woman?

Good story. Questionable main character
I like the world and the fact of the love interest. She made a really dumb decision without admitting that it was a bad call and that ruined part of the story for and made me checkout.

Nice mystery series
Nice series. my first time reading Tyora's work. The story content is good and sticks to the end. The audio voice for the men could have been better. The mystery was not hard to figure out, but enjoyable to see to the end.
