Excerpt
Meet Paris:
“Gardenia Lane was a treasure trove of characters, to say the
least. Yet, there was much I believed that I didn’t know about
the cast of eccentric souls who shared my landscape. I should talk:
I carried my own hidden mystery, carefully concealed under a
veil of secrecy. Years of maneuvering within this modus operandi
kept my background unchallenged.”
Meet Cruz:
“Detective Cruz’s initial interviews with the neighbors on Gardenia
Lane did not result in much data. He’d been successful in
reaching out to that cute writer next door. She was an interesting
creature, a loner—and one he intended to follow up with as his
investigation progressed.”
