The Alibi Club (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9798892427272)

Six singles. One group blind date night. Infinite possibilities for disaster.

A blind date turns to calamity in this charming story that's Materialists meets Anxious People.

Single, female, forty-one. Forensic psychologist Jamie Frisco's bio reads more like victim data than stellar online dating fodder, and she's on the verge of becoming an accidental recluse and forever-spinster. That future is made all the more certain when her mother threatens to leave her out of her substantial will unless Jamie brings a suitable date to her wedding. Enter matchmaker Lorna Gray, who invites Jamie to an intriguing alternative to the hellscape of online dating--Dinner for Six.

Recently paroled antiquities thief Cliff Weston is desperate to change but needs a loan from an unconventional source to start his new security business. The catch: bring a woman of character to secure it. Then he meets matchmaker Lorna Gray, who offers him a dating opportunity he can't refuse.

As Dinner for Six commences, Jamie, Cliff, and four other unlikely singles are just about to dig into their main course when bombs knock out the power in their small beach town, throwing everything into chaos.

After the smoke clears, a SWAT team arrives, and a lockdown ensues, trapping the diners together. As the night goes on, masks fall, secrets are revealed, love between diners sparks and fizzles, and the biggest heist in Manhattan Beach history is going down... and someone at the table might be behind it all.

When all the truth spills out over the course of one crazy, unpredictable night, does love still stand a chance?
