"A master of the mystery & suspense genre." -Midwest Book Review After her husband dies, Lydia Krause sells her company and moves to an upscale retirement community on Long Island to start a new life. At her first Twin Lakes event, she meets the community's financial advisor, whom she recognizes as the convicted embezzler who drove her sister to suicide. After exchanging heated words with the man's wife, Lydia flees the scene.
When the woman is found dead the following morning, Detective Sol Molina considers Lydia suspect number one. Lydia undertakes an investigation to clear her name. More Twin Lake residents are murdered, and she's determined to find the killer. She's also dealing with issues concerning her two daughters.
