A wealthy community. A body discovered behind locked gates. Someone on the street is a MURDERER.

Private Investigator Annie Hudson doesn't see the world like everyone else. Brought on as a special crime consultant by her childhood friend—FBI Agent Ethan Beckett—Annie Hudson can solve any case that's put in front of her. Except for the case from her childhood that made her who she is. But when Annie is summoned to Aspen Lane to solve a murder, the past breaks wide open.

A body has been found in the middle of this upscale enclave, and the gates were locked at the time. The murderer lives on Aspen Lane. Six houses. Even more suspects. And the killer might have a connection to Annie's mysterious past. Can Annie get to the bottom of the mystery on this exclusive street, where the neighbors keep secrets and loyalty is hard to come by?

I love detective Annie Hudson!!

This book made my vacation so much better as i listened to it while lounging at the beautiful beaches of Maui. It was a well written mystery novel that kept me guessing until the end. I thoroughly enjoyed watching how detective Annie Hudson questions suspects as she completely disarms them with her friendly banter. This book really made me miss a good a good mystery and have me wanting more.

Fun with good characters

This was such a fun and cozy read! I loved that it took place behind a gated community, and we really got to know each neighbor.

I was expecting one mystery to be solved (who committed the murder), but there were many more sprinkled throughout and at one point I was really concerned on how in the heck all of these could be solved! But they were!!

I also came to really love and feel for some characters as I got to know their story more. I can’t wait for the next book in this series and to solve the over-arching mystery.
