The Red Letter

By Daniel G. Miller

Book Overview

"I inhaled this book. With killer twist after twist, I defy you to predict where it's going." -- John Marrs, international bestselling author of You Killed Me First

A DEAD BODY. A MYSTERIOUS RED LETTER.

Hazel has everything she wants.

Business is booming at her boutique private investigation firm. She's dating the man of her dreams. Even her perpetually skeptical mother seems impressed. Then the NYPD finds a beloved neighborhood priest dead along with a mysterious red letter.

Hazel investigates the murder as a favor to an old friend and discovers that the priest wasn't the only recent murder victim to receive a red letter...and one victim has ties to a psychopath from a past life that Hazel thought she had buried. One by one, the red letters continue to appear, and with every letter, another killing, each more mysterious than the last.

As Hazel closes in on the killer, the killer closes in on her, and Hazel begins to question everything she thought she knew about herself and the people around her. Even worse, Hazel discovers that the only way to find the truth is to open one more...

Customer Reviews

Hazel does it again!

It is good to see that Hazel has risen in life after the last awful case finding Mia and shutting down the Dionysus Club. She has a bigger office, more employees (including the ever helpful Kenny and new hires Momo and Mary) and has found a good man that she loves (Jack, a rising politician running for Mayor who is also madly in love with her and is so sweet!). Hazel really is a great detective for solving cases within a short time and time is against her once again to find out who killed a friendly priest she knows. She is also so tough and that is a good things because the serial killer sending out those red letters will throw everything at her and keep killing the victims that fit the crimes. There are so many twists and red herrings that kept me reading long past when I should have stopped. I really feel for her and absolutely love Hazel and would definitely hire her to find missing people or solving murder cases with a tight deadline. This is a great series and I wish Hazel and Kenny and the others the very best and will happily keep reading their further cases! Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for the chance to read and review this great book in an edge of your seat thrilling series!
