"Sweet and sexy and satisfying enough to make me almost forget there were actual lives at stake." - Alicia Thompson, USA Today bestselling author of Love in the Time of Serial Killers
Brooklyn 99 meets The Charm Offensive in this sparkling romantic murder mystery: it's murder cute in the first degree when a detective finds himself falling for the lead suspect in a career-making case.
At 29, Detective Rav Trivedi is the youngest member of the NYPD’s homicide squad, and his future looks bright. He may be a bit of an outsider in the department—an ivy-league educated gay Brit with a weakness for designer suits—but his meteoric rise and solve rate prove he belongs.
So when his CO assigns him lead on the high-profile murder of a record executive, Rav is ready for action. He won’t be distracted by TV crews, tabloids, or what’s trending on social media, nor by the ridiculously hot rock star with a clear motive and no alibi.
This is it, his shot, and he is not going to screw it up—certainly not by falling in love with his number one suspect…
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
A brilliant young investigator meets the man of his dreams while working a high-profile murder case in Dunn's bewitching debut. Rav Trivedi, an Ivy League-educated Brit, is the youngest member of the NYPD's homicide squad at 29 years old. When music executive Richard Vanderford is found murdered in his home, Rav is tapped to lead the investigation. It turns out that Vanderford was not short on enemies, including popular band the Nicks (Vanderford bought the master recordings of the group's first two albums out from under them). Rav, however, doesn't think the Nicks killed Vanderford—especially not their hunky lead singer Jack Vale. After Jack is cleared as a suspect, he and Rav consummate their mutual attraction, but then new evidence emerges that puts Rav's career on the line. Eventually, he's faced with a choice between taking the easy road to save his career or risking his reputation on the word of his new flame. Mystery and romance play equal parts in this fast-paced cozy, which revs up on its way to a truly surprising twist ending. Readers will hope to hear more from the smart, stylish Rav soon.
