MOONLIGHT CAN BE DEADLY (A Discount Detective Mystery #4)

Ritual human sacrifice. Ecofeminists. Jealousy. And a "dateworthy" handsome professor.

A full moon re-enactment of an ancient human sacrifice ritual turns deadly. An ecofeminist group causes a panic at a climate rally. And a woman involved with both events is kidnapped.

When PI Cameron Chandler and her colleague are hired to protect a client's niece at a full moon ritual, they think it's a simple one-night assignment. But they soon find themselves enmeshed in a far-reaching investigation. As the full moon wanes, Cameron confronts a murderer and must choose between doing things by the book or saving herself.

Cameron lives with her mother, her two children and a dog called No-name in a carriage house in Seattle. For the most part, it's a good arrangement. But her kids are subject to typical adolescent ups and downs, and her mother has strong opinions about how Cameron should be living her life. Cameron's family life adds a lighthearted distraction to the dangers she faces as a PI.

Moonlight Can Be Deadly is Book 4 in the Discount Detective Mystery series, in which a single mom reinvents herself and ends up working as a PI with quirky colleagues, a mysterious boss with a secret past, in an agency whose motto is "Vigilance You Can Afford."
