A Cadger's Curse
Synopsis (from the publisher): Working over Christmas isn't all bad. For insurance investigator DD McGil, who lost her fiancé two years ago, a routine job offers welcome distraction. But who could guess that running employee background checks at Hi-Data, a major software company in Chicago's Silicon Valley, would lead to three dead bodies, counterfeit money, and a killer on her tail?
The electrocuted corpse of a Hi-Data partner, who just happens to be her dead fiance's step-brother, is only the first nasty surprise in this deadly web of corporate treachery. Is it possible that her aunt's newfound Robert Burns discovery—a literary treasure worth millions if authenticated—is somehow connected?
Relying on her own tools of the trade and the preternatural fact-finding skills of her antiquarian bookseller friend Tom Joyce, DD slowly pieces together a sordid case of high tech villainy, which turns out to be shockingly linked to her fiancé's mysterious death.
