SummaryEach novel in this compelling new series about Los Angeles
cops will deal with a unique and fascinating Los Angeles
milieu. In her first outing, Detective Sandra Cameron finds
out that drawing cartoons can be deadly, especially when
you are as orignial and unorthodox as cartoonist
extraordinaire, Patrick Stewart. When the talented but
deceased Mr. Stewart is found lying next to a note
reading, "That's All, Folks," most people assume he
committed suicide. Detective Sandra Cameron and her colleague Detective
Sergeant Tom Rigby suspect Mr. Parker met a much darker
demise, one that included some unasked-for assistance. They
are even more suspicious after a beautiful dead girl,
another cartoon-industry insider, is found floating in her
tub. The two cops decide to combine forces, and their
relationship teeters on the somewhat fluid boundary between
their professional and personal lives. Tom has just been
betrayed by an ex-wife, and he is distressed by his
feelings for Sandra. She, on the other hand, has her own
very comfortable life. She has to ask herself whether
romance on the job is ever a good idea--does she really
need a man in her life? What she has in her life is a cold-blooded murder, and as
Tom and Sandra struggle with their personal demons,
including the ongoing unsolved case involving Sandra's
brother, a devilish killer is concocting some chilling
scenarios.
