Marti O'Neil is an ex-cop with one chance to save her uncle's failing detective agency. Her first case should be simple: investigate the suspicious death of a wealthy widow's husband and prove her client had nothing to do with it. But nothing stays simple for long. Pulled into the moneyed shadows of Philadelphia's suburbs and the old-world corridors of the Sedgewick Hotel in Stroudsburg, Pennsylvania, Marti finds herself surrounded by secrets, lies, and suspects with everything to lose. As the investigation turns dangerous, she must rely on her police instincts, sharp interview skills, and an intuitive sense for hidden patterns to uncover the truth before the killer strikes again. Maybe the answer is in the cards. Ace of Cups: Her First Time Out launches The Tarot Mysteries, an LGBTQ crime romance mystery series where disciplined investigation, romantic tension, and tarot-based intuition reveal what evidence alone can miss. Perfect for readers of romantic suspense, women sleuth mysteries, police procedural crime fiction, and detective stories with smart heroines, emotional chemistry, and just enough spice.
