The Husband's Secret

Debra Webb

Her ex’s mysterious death

…is now theirs to solve.

When Brenda Devers sees her estranged—and recently deceased—husband, Scott, at the airport, she reels in shock. She’d buried him three weeks ago—hadn’t she? Only now his business troubles have thrust Brenda and her young daughter into sudden do-or-die jeopardy. Luckily the single mom’s new neighbor, Ben Clark, is smart, attractive and seemingly trustworthy when police and the FBI are not. A top Colby private investigator, Ben’s been hired to protect Brenda. But as he helps her uncover the truth about Scott, the danger factor amps up—and her worst nightmare might be coming true.

From Harlequin Intrigue: Seek thrills. Solve crimes. Justice served.
