Death of a Rich Man (Jackson Mystery/Thriller #17)
For Detective Jackson, the murder of a billionaire landlord seems like a slam-dunk case against the leader of a local Renters Rebellion. When the taskforce soon discovers secret images on the victim’s laptop, they pursue another more-deviant motive. But the rich man’s widow has the chief of police on speed dial and threatens to shut down any investigation into her husband’s private life.
The case takes another unexpected turn when the widow is kidnapped and Detective Evans is pulled off the team to check out an accidental drowning. When the dead woman’s sister abruptly dies too, Evans digs even deeper into the family’s secrets.
To stop the killers, the detectives must defy the police chief and risk their jobs to find the shocking truth that binds their investigations.
