Book description
New York Times bestselling author Heather Graham choreographs a sexy
thriller of passion and murder... Accomplished dancer Lara Trudeau drops
dead of a heart attack brought on by a lethal combination of booze and
pills. To former private investigator Quinn O Casey, it s a simple case
of death by misadventure. But when his brother Doug, a Miami-Dade
patrolman, asks for help, he can t refuse. Especially when he learns
that Lara and Doug--a student at the Moonlight Sonata dance studio where
Lara occasionally taught--were having an affair. And despite Quinn s
lack of interest in the case and even less in dancing, experience has
taught him not to count on the obvious when it comes to murder. Going
undercover as a dance student, Quinn meets studio manager Shannon
Mackay, a beautiful, graceful woman who has left world-class competition
to teach. He also uncovers some disturbing facts. Everyone there had a
reason to hate Lara Trudeau, a woman as ruthless as she was talented. As
a drama of broken hearts, shattered dreams and tangled motives unfolds,
Quinn begins looking for a killer. In a city where pleasure drugs are a
fast and dangerous high, Quinn is alarmed by the growing number of
deaths due to overdoses, illegal substances and execution-style
shootings connected to the Moonlight Sonata. Shannon, too, has begun to
wonder if strange events surrounding the studio have a deeper source.
She suspects she s being followed. Worse, she fears someone may be
trying to kill her. Shannon is about to discover the risks she is
willing to take to fight for what she wants--to dance, to compete again,
to share her life with Quinn. Yet someone has another plan for her, a
dangerous shadow figure made all the more deadly by wearing the face of
a friend. But someone just hadn t counted on Quinn O Casey--a man who
doesn t give up and never backs down, especially when it comes to
protecting the woman he loves. New York Times bestselling author
