"Nichols creates a cast of funny eccentrics who are in way over their heads when it comes to fraudulent antiques dealers, deadly doctors, and cold-blooded murderers. " –Kim Conrey Author of Stealing Ares
Lucy Howard has arranged her life around the philosophy honesty is mostly the best policy. But her dream to work in research at a reputable museum doesn't materialize. Instead, she finds herself investigating a charming elderly woman who's running an insurance scam involving the company Lucy works for. She catches her "perfect" boyfriend with another woman. And her favorite narcoleptic- antiques-dealing uncle needs her to prove he's not a murderer, unless he actually is.
Her boss agrees to assist her if she joins his investigation against a doctor suspected of selling human organs. Along with a sexy detective who makes Lucy question her resolve not to rush into another relationship, she becomes involved with some very shady characters. When she begins receiving bizarrely ominous threats, she realizes she could be in real danger.
As the threats escalate, Lucy recognizes that her belief in total transparency might not be enough to save her life. And that if she gets the chance to begin a new one, she must accept that honesty, without love to temper it, can be a cold companion.
