The Lady Who Sang High

By Renee Pawlish

She hires Reed to see if this is true or part of her stoner imagination. Reed goes undercover as an employee in Jodie's store, and he soon discovers that selling weed can be a dangerous business. It doesn't take long before Reed uncovers secrets and lies that lead to murder. But can he find the killer before his secret identity is discovered?
