Story
I got her fired. Okay, so I’d had a bad day and took it out on a bystander in a pizza shop. But there’s nothing innocent about Ally Morales. She proves that her first day of her new job in my office, after being hired by my mother. So, maybe, her colorful, annoying, inexplicably alluring personality brightens up the magazine’s offices that have felt like a prison for the past year. Maybe, I like that she argues with me in front of the editorial staff. And maybe, my after-hours fantasies are haunted by those brown eyes and that sharp tongue.

To Senior Midwife Lucy Ryuan, pregnancy is not an unusual condition, it's her life's work. But when two kidnappings and a vicious stabbing happen on her watch in a university hospital in Manhattan, her focus abruptly changes. Something has to be done, and Lucy is fearless enough to try. Rumors begin to swirl, blaming everyone from the Russian Mafia to an underground adoption network. The feisty single mom teams up with a skeptical NYPD detective to solve the case, but the truth is far more twisted than Lucy could ever have imagined.

One small handwritten letter, sent from a dark, remote corner of the planet and lost in the system for 60 years, is about to change the entire human race. Outside Denver, Colorado, Joe Rickards stands over a small aircraft wreckage, studying burnt remains still smoldering in a field of freshly fallen snow. He's an investigator for the NTSB, working to carefully roll back the last several hours and identify the cause of the accident. But this time, he can't.

As a sixteen-year-old, Tessa Cartwright was found in a Texas field, barely alive amid a scattering of bones, with only fragments of memory as to how she got there. Ever since, the press has pursued her as the lone surviving “Black-Eyed Susan”, the nickname given to the murder victims because of the yellow carpet of wildflowers that flourished above their shared grave. Tessa’s testimony about those tragic hours put a man on death row.

Rosalind is to take up residence in Melbourne House, posing as Lady Melbourne's confidential secretary. There, she must discover the thief and regain possession of the letters.

Publisher's Summary
Are you sure you could tell the difference between murder and suicide?
Having had more than enough of the big city, Detective Charlie McClung moves to a small town, looking for a simpler life.
Turns out his first case is the most complicated of his career.
A young woman is found shot and while everyone is telling him suicide, his gut, and the dead woman’s beautiful neighbor, are telling him something quite different.
How far can he dig before he uncovers secrets never meant to be unearthed? Throw in a shady police chief and an unexpected love interest and McClung quickly finds himself with more trouble than he ever imagined.
Critic Reviews
"Brilliant Disguise is a first-rate mystery that harkens you back to the days of Agatha Christie. You’ll feel a sense of nostalgia as you immerse yourself in the story, investigating alongside Det. McClung and eagerly awaiting clues at every turn. It’s an edge-of-your-seat whodunit!” (Monique Michelle Mason, author of Moving at the Speed of Single)

Keeps you thinking
I have to say I really enjoyed this book and audible definitely help enhanced the experience. The VO Bruce Peters did a wonderful job narrating. It never sounded like he was reading a script. His voices for the different characters were entertaining. I would definitely would recommend this to anyone.

Fantastic character driven mystery
Marian Selby's life is turned upside down after a disturbance in her neighborhood. Neighbors and police have gathered and she discovers the horrible news that her friend and neighbor Dianne is dead. The police rule it a suicide and close the case, but Marian knows it is not a suicide. It is a good thing Detective Charlie McClung is on the case because it seems like he is the only one who will dig a bit deeper into the mystery. Marian and Charlie work on the case together secretly, but danger is right around the corner. I loved this book. It is a character driven story, and the mystery is the backdrop for romance. The reader gets to know Marian and Charlie at the same time the characters are getting to know each other as they investigate a crime. The characters are refreshingly real. They have flaws which makes them genuine and endearing. I love that it takes place in the 1980's. It reminds me of hart to hart, the 1980's tv show. I mean that in the most positive way. It is a fantastic first book in the Charlie Clung series. I loved the narrator. He did a great job. Some stories are better told out loud. This book is one of them. I hope the rest of the series gets recorded on audio book.

Read it straight through
I thoroughly enjoyed this book and the story line. Each chapter made me want to read the next straight away. I'm looking forward to the next book of the series. Well done to the author! The level of detail made you picture everything as if you were in the room. The narrator did a great job!
