Zack Walker Mystery #4

Journalist Zack Walker has a dangerous habit of finding deadly stories. But this is one his good friend Trixie Snelling doesn't want told.

It turns out Trixie has her fair share of skeletons in her closet and, as Zack discovers, a dead body in her basement.

With other journalists circling the story - and no sign of Trixie, who has gone missing - Zack could find himself implicated in a murder, unless he finds out the truth fast.

The bad news is: it will cost him his job, and teach him that everything he knows about his friend, his town, and even his marriage, is a lie. The good news It hasn't cost him his life . . . yet.
