Deception: A Nikki Summers Mystery Book 1

By Rita Garcia

My name is Nikki Summers. I'm a private investigator-a former detective with the Serenity Cove Police Department.

While I love police work. After witnessing the murder of my fianc in a drug bust gone wrong, I turned in my police badge. I set up a private investigator office in the front room of my beach cottage, which I share with Izzy, a Belgian Malinois. My attempt to find the extraordinary in an otherwise ordinary world.

Rose Ledbetter strode into my office, dressed in a mohair navy jacket with wide lapels trimmed in white over tailored slacks, a style past its time. Rose is one of those rare people you meet and feel you've known forever. Her son-missing 20 years, left a trail colder than the snow in the Swiss Alps. That was the first layer of her story.

Unraveling the pieces of Rose's mystery escalated my own pain and loss. My burden of guilt and grief safely tucked away inside.

My hope is that by helping Rose and others like her, I'll find freedom from the nightmare of the past.
