Before She Fell (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781917214001)

An ostentatious party descends into violence-and a disgraced cop sets out to redeem herself by solving the case . . .

Susan Grey's fiftieth birthday party promised to be a talked-about event-an over-the-top extravagant gathering of a hundred guests at her sprawling Georgian home. But it would be talked about for all the wrong reasons . . .

From an escalated argument to the disappearance of an expensive piece of jewelry, the party was quickly spiraling out of control. But the worst was yet to come, when Susan suffered a horrific fall down the grand staircase. Was it an accident or was she pushed?

For DI Grace Roth, relegated to desk duty due to an internal investigation, this could be a high-profile case and a chance to redeem herself. But every lead seems to send her in circles. As the badly injured Susan lies in her hospital bed, DI Roth must try to gather the scattered pieces of the puzzle and make them fit-before anyone else gets hurt . . .
