Dig Two Graves - Crescent Falls, #4 - E-book - ePub

Crescent Fall's most famous amateur sleuth, Adelaide McBride, is shocked to spot wanted criminal Ed Lucas. Adelaide and her beaux Vernon are in Columbus on a pleasure trip when she spies Lucas, in disguise and working as a security guard. Naturally, she informs her son, Chief of Police Daniel McBride, and Daniel is not happy at this development. Drama seems to abound within the Crescent Falls police department.
Officer Sharon Baker has apparently set her cap for Second-in-Command, Luke Fagan, to the consternation of Luke's wife, Betty, who is also Adelaide's best friend. It's bad enough Betty is suffering from MS without this added stress. The idea that Ed Lucas might be back in town is unsettling to many people, many of whom he has wronged. Local reporter Gary Bowman's continual nosing around has people on edge, considering many think him to be nothing more than a tabloid journalist trying to profit from their misery.
Everyone is jumpy, especially as accidents begin to happen to some of the citizens of Crescent Falls. Fingers are pointing everywhere, and no one knows who to trust. Daniel has his hands full. He needs more police officers, but that isn't likely to happen anytime soon. Can he take care of the current situation before the whole town explodes?
