More Description From Anthony and Agatha Award-winning author Elaine Viets--the thrilling mystery series about one woman trying to make a living... while other people are making a killing.
Still living under the radar in Fort Lauderdale due to her refusal to pay her ex-husband's spousal support, Helen Hawthorne's latest workaday job might just be the lowest rung on the employment ladder--telemarketing. She's spending her hours interrupting dinners and disturbing slumbers, and in return hearing curses and extremely rude suggestions.
Then, while Helen is conducting a phone survey with the wealthy Henry "Hank" Asporth, he puts the receiver down without hanging up...and Helen can't believe what she hears next. She can just make out a man and a woman arguing, a short scream cut off by a horrible choking sound, then an eerie silence followed by a final "click."
Convinced she just heard a murder being committed--but with no solid proof--Helen is driven to find out what really happened with Hank and the mystery woman. But if she's not careful, she just might end up holding a dead line of her own...
