Crooked Ways
(2024)(The seventh book in the Tai Randolph & Trey Seaver Mystery series)
A novel by Tina Whittle
Tai Randolph doesn’t like tailing adulterers. Or photographing cracked sidewalks. Or staking out insurance scammers.
But being an apprentice PI means doing what she’s told, filling out paperwork, and following the rules, all the rules. It���s a bit chafing for someone whose amateur sleuthing playbook included dodging, lying, and occasional light blackmail.
But then her past comes knocking. Literally.
After a decade in the wind, Tai’s Aunt Rowena reappears, and she’s convinced someone is trying to kill Beauregard Boone, the complicated ex-felon at the heart of Tai’s twisted family tree. It’s an intriguing case, even if it means returning to the coastal islands of Savannah, Georgia, a city that keeps breaking Tai’s heart over and over again.
Not that life in Atlanta is uncomplicated. Trey Seaver—her partner in both romance and crime solving—is keeping a secret. Her new job comes with a moral rectitude clause, so she has to be on her best behavior at all times. And unless she scrapes together some extra bucks, the electric bill is going to be paid late. Again.
But in Savannah, all she has to worry about is vehicular homicide, flying bullets, and an enemy who has been laying low for a long long time. Tai’s got a choice to make: Safety and security where the only risk is boredom? Or risk and reward where the consequences could be deadly?
