The Desperate Man: A Q.C. Davis Mystery

By Lisa M. Lilly

Someone Is Watching....

Someone is watching Lauren Hughes. At first, it's just unsettling. Then it's terrifying.

Disturbing gifts. Escalating threats. A presence that never seems far away.

Lauren has always been fearless-until now.

Lawyer and private investigator Quille C. Davis knows the danger to her best friend is real, even if Lauren tries to downplay it. With suspects ranging from jealous rivals to buried secrets from Lauren's past, Quille must untangle a web of motives before it's too late.

But this isn't like Quille's past cases. Because this time, she's not investigating a murder. She's trying to stop one.

And when the stalker makes a deadly move, Quille may already be too late.

The Desperate Man is the latest book in the Q.C. Davis Mystery series, and it also stands alone. If you enjoy crime novels featuring clever female sleuths, unraveling mysteries, and life-and-death stakes, then you'll love this addition to the series.
