Key to Murder

By K.D. Upton

A murderous scavenger hunt. Sleuths beware...

Life was starting to look up. I'd gotten my friend back, albeit as a ghost, solved his murder, and had a fake boyfriend to boot. But long-ago secrets threatened to topple the serenity I'd struggled to build, and though I'd sworn off danger, it followed me like a shadow. Soon, I was smack dab in the middle of yet another murder investigation.

But this was no ordinary case.

Someone murdered Frank Caine, my boss' father. And if that wasn't bad enough, I, along with about a dozen others, was unexpectedly summoned to the reading of his will. But Mr. Caine unwittingly unleashed a killer on our trails, hungry for the multimillion dollar cash prize. The catch? The money is split among the winners. Those who drop out get nothing. The rest goes to charity. The time frame? Seven days. The clock starts now!

With death threats, dead rats, and homes going up in flames, astonishing secrets are revealed and catapult us on a scavenger hunt to find the killer. Would we find them before any more of us ended up dead? Or would they get away with murder and millions more? Let the games begin.
