Lia Matera

Lovers and Lawyers

Twelve suspenseful stories from the author of the Willa Jansson and Laura Di Palma mystery series.
A killer’s using freezing weather and plenty of water to eliminate the city’s homeless population, and a lawyer must identify the culprit before her client’s arrested for the bizarre murders . . . An off-the-grid, clandestine meeting between an attorney and her recently acquitted lover takes a twisted turn . . . In 1918, as the flu pandemic decimates America, a nanny for a wealthy family is mistaken for dead, but that’s only the beginning of her troubles . . . On a quiet Oregon beach on Native American land, a couple is debating whether or not they should get married when a stranger interrupts them . . .
These are just a few of the mysterious tales in this collection that has “tight plotting, good characterizations, and page-turning suspense. . . . Matera [is] one of the best contemporary mystery novelists” (Booklist).
