Deadly Cool

by Gemma Halliday

First I find out that my boyfriend is cheating on me. Then he’s pegged as the #1 suspect in a murder. And now he’s depending on me to clear his name. Seriously?

As much as I wouldn’t mind watching him squirm, I know that he’s innocent. So I’m brushing off my previously untapped detective skills and getting down to business. But I keep tripping over dead bodies and I’m still no closer to figuring out who did it. And what’s worse: all signs seem to point to me as the killer’s next victim.

I really need to pick a better boyfriend next time.

Here's my teaser:

"I slowly tiptoed toward the closet. sure the sound of my heart pounding was loud enough for Sam to hear. I reached a hand out and quickly slid the door back..."

I haven't finished Deadly Cool yet, but based on this Teaser, it should be very suspenseful.

Paperback, 272 pages
