Valerie Wilson Wesley's Tamara Hayle mystery series featuring
Newark, New Jersey's number one private investigator are loved for
their smart, sexy protagonist who "has a way with a wisecrack that
is positively lethal" ("Washington Post"). Now in "Dying in the
Dark," Hayle is entrenched in a sinister investigation that will
demand her best detective work yet.
Tamara Hayle's past has come back to haunt her-literally. She's
been plagued by terrifying dreams about Celia Jones, an old friend
whose walk on the wild side led her to a horrible death. Celia's
teenage son, Cecil, begs Tamara to find his mother's killer . . .
only to end up dead himself, stabbed through the heart.
The search for Celia and her son's killer pulls Tamara deep into
her friend's troubled love life, where everyone adored her but
somebody held a murderous grudge. There's her bullying thug of an
ex-husband; a handsome ex-lover who woos Tamara with charm and
lies; and an angry, jealous woman who claims that Celia broke her
heart. And those were just the obvious people with axes to grind.
Despite her better judgment and the admonitions of the police
department, Tamara refuses to back away from the mystery
surrounding her old friend's death and the tragedy that met her
son. All clues lead to the past Tamara shared with Celia Jones, and
Tamara fears that that past will threaten her own son. But she
uncovers more than she bargained for-and unearths secrets someone
would kill to keep in the shadows.
