When James Mandoor, founder and president of Mandoor Specialty Insurance (MSI), married his recently hired receptionist, Elaine, who was half his age, many people were not very optimistic regarding the future of the marriage. But two years later, both Elaine and James seemed to be very happily married and very much in love.

Then the Yonkers police found the bodies of Elaine, and also that of a con man / ladies' man named Gary, on the floor of a small secluded cabin, owned by MSI. Both had been shot dead.

The three VPs of MSI got together to retain the services of smart, sexy supersleuth Amy Bell to investigate the double murder. She soon discovered that Elaine's past behavior was very far from squeaky-clean, and there were several people who had reasons to want her dead. The same for Gary, in spades!

However, many of Amy's suspects had good alibis, and others passed lie detector tests. Clearly, Amy was missing something--something big--while her chances to find some sort of new evidence were running thin. Could she somehow break through and solve the double murder?

Author David Schwinger, when not writing Amy Bell mysteries--there are now eighteen--enjoys composing songs, playing trivia, and traveling the world with his wife, Sherryl. David first met Sherryl when she was his student in a mathematics class he taught at City College of New York. Their secret romance became the inspiration for his first Amy Bell mystery, The Teacher's Pet Murders.
