Now in mass market, New York Times bestselling author Carol Higgins
Clark delivers the fourteenth installment in her crowd-pleasing Regan
Reilly mystery series, this one set on the Jersey Shore, in a fun story
the Today show called "dizzying."
Private investigator Regan Reilly and her husband, Jack, head of the
NYPD Major Case Squad, plan to spend the weekend at the Jersey shore
with her parents. But the weekend gets off to an early start when Regan
receives a phone call from her mother Nora asking if she'd hop on a
train right away.
Hayley Patton is a successful New York City event planner who suspected
that her beau, Scott, was cheating and hired her former high school
classmate Regan to follow him. When Hayley got the lowdown on Scott's
treachery, she vowed revenge with such vehemence that Regan is worried
that Hayley might go too far. Meanwhile, Nora had also just spoken to an
agitated high school classmate. Karen Frawley Fulton, who lives in San
Diego, called Nora after learning that her mother just sold their home
at the Jersey shore and is having a garage sale to end all garage sales.
Karen asks Nora to please go to the house and, she hopes, curtail any
other outrageous antics her mother probably has in mind. Nora agrees and
asks Regan to join her.
At the Frawley home Regan is astonished to see Scott's brand-new
fiancée, who quickly makes herself scarce. Once inside the house, Regan
becomes increasingly suspicious about why the house was vacated
unexpectedly. Turns out, there is a good reason...
