Stark Raving

Dr. Barb Stark's friendly little resort city explodes with violence as murderers, con men, scheming military special ops, motorcycle gangs and professional assassins descend on Duncan. Returning character Haley Foster provides unusual support as Barb is faced with the murder of a business partner with so many complications she has to laugh to keep from crying. Her consulting work with Chandler Security Institute throws her into violent contact with theft rings and serial killers on military bases. And she's trying to get her talk-therapy practice going again. Barb has to scramble and use her wits, will, and everything else she can get her hands on to survive and save her family. This is a fast-paced romp with abundant humor, action and romance. STARK RAVING also provides a deep look into what happens to relationships between men and women when they're deeply in love but deciding to risk their lives. And yes, Malcolm's doing his spooky-dog thing in this one, too.
