Medusa Effect: A Crime Fiction Thriller

By A.J. Lape

"Darcy is one of my favorite FMCs ever." ... Martin

A gripping crime thriller as an LAPD rookie faces a deadly combination of secrets, birthdays, and death.

Darcy Walker isn't making enough bank to pay her bills. But delivering pizzas as a side hustle hits a snag when she finds her customer without a pulse. Problem is, the victim is Ugly Pizza's biggest competitor, and her boss, Rollo, becomes a prime suspect.

Determined to clear his name when crimes from his past surface, life as a rookie goes high octane when she dodges gunfire in an active shooter incident at the Church to the Stars. Going against direct orders to leave the interrogation to the suits, Darcy uncovers shocking revelations that unearth a Hollywood scoop that's anything but holy. While chasing the truth in both investigations, she fends off a bounty on her own head, and the feeling somebody is trying to kill her too.

Is it someone connected to Rollo's case? The church seeking payback? Or does a third party have an end game she doesn't yet understand?

Medusa Effect is the fourth book in the Darcy Walker Crime Thriller series-messier, more dangerous, and far less forgiving.
For readers who like dark investigations, stubborn cops, and mysteries where every answer opens a worse door.
