In Big Trouble: A Tess Monaghan Novelby Laura Lippman
Synopses & ReviewsPublisher Comments:Tess Monaghan has learned the hard way how to survive on the streets of Baltimore—first as a fearless investigative reporter and lately as a p.i. But a new case is about to take her way out of her element. What begins with a tantalizing shard of a newspaper headline, “In Big Trouble,” above a photograph of an old boyfriend will end far away in another world, where people dress and talk differently . . . and rich peoples games can have lethal consequences. Here where the sun is merciless—and curiosity can kill faster than a rattlers bite—Tess is going to have to confront her past and, hopefully, live to tell about it. For the answers she seeks about a man she thought she knew may be somehow linked to a murderer who two-steps to a very deadly drummer.
