Pyramid Deception

Private Eye Hannibal Jones takes on the most important client of his life: Cindy Santiago, the woman he loves. Cindy has been betrayed by a close friend and taken in a scam that has left her almost penniless. The swindler has not only taken her money, he has stolen her confidence and robbed her of her will to live.

Hannibal's only lead is Irene, the woman who got Cindy's friend involved and wants to run away with him. She may hold the key to Cindy's problem...until she is gunned down right in front of Hannibal in a drive-by shooting. When Irene's body disappears, Hannibal is the top suspect in a plot to help her and her boyfriend escape. Now, he needs to clear his name and recover Cindy's money.

As more murders follow, Hannibal must unravel the complex scheme before he and Cindy become the next victims.
