Too Close to Evil

"ELIZABETH TERRELL'S TOO CLOSE TO EVIL IS A FAST RIDE THROUGH MODERN DAY NASHVILLE. SHE'S GOT A REAL EAR FOR DIALOG, HER CHARACTERS ARE COMPELLING, AND HER PLOT NICELY TWISTED. WHAT A TERRIFIC START FOR A TALENTED YOUNG WRITER--I RECOMMEND HER HIGHLY." --Sallie Bissell, critically acclaimed author of IN THE FOREST OF HARM Nashville private investigator Jared McKean has a weakness for women in jeopardy--until one frames him for murder. His DNA and fingerprints are found at the murder scene. His voice is on the victim's answering machine. A man of his height and build was seen leaving the scene of the crime, and the victim was killed by a bullet from his gun. It's a grim situation, further complicated by matters closer to home: a son with Down Syndrome, a best friend with AIDS, a teen-age nephew who has just come out of the closet and run away to join the Goth subculture, and an ex-wife he can't seem to fall out of love with. As the mystery deepens and the body count rises, Jared is forced to confront the possibility that the killer may be someone close to him, someone he trusts. This time, an unsolved case could cost him his life. "THE STUFF HOLLYWOOD MOVIES ARE MADE OF.
