Felony Murder
(2024)(The fourth book in the C.o.P. on the Scene Mystery series)
A novel by Kassandra Lamb
All is not as it seems in Starling, Florida…
A phone call from a desperate teen, awaiting trial for felony murder, spurs Chief of Police Judith Anderson to re-open the case of a drug deal gone wrong.
She has mixed emotions about the felony murder charge—which can be brought against anyone involved in a felony that results in someone’s death, and her investigation finds more questions than answers. How did two white gang members involved end up with sweet plea deals, while the Latino kid with no record is charged with felony murder?
Meanwhile, attempts on the life of Starling’s mayor and glimpses around town of her lover talking to various women divide Judith’s attention and stir up her old demons of distrust. As she tries to keep both the mayor and her love life alive while ferreting out what really happened the night that drug deal went sideways, she begins to wonder…
Are all these cases related—all strands of a sinister web, with much more at stake than one kid’s freedom or her own heart?
