Time Lapse

While shooting The Lazarus Gambit, on location in a small upstate New york town, the superstar actor, Henry Brook drowns mysteriously. Since both the actor and the film were insured by Independence Mutual, the company wants to make sure the accident was just that. Anna Peters, the head of Executive Security and a film buff, is hired to look into Henry Brook's death and soon learns more than she wanted to know about his megastar ego and unsavory personal habits.

"Sophisticated and believable entertainment..."Publisher's Weekly

Backfire

A high profile arson-murder case is not in her usual pro bono line, but Anna Peters is intrigued by the anonymous caller soliciting her aid in clearing an immigrant housekeeper in the death of her wealthy employer. Anna soon find a trail from Washington, D.C. to Tucson that's littered with dirty money, deception, and death.

Anna Peters knows little about ice hockey when she agrees to help Jurgen "T-Rex" Parkes, star center of the NHL expansion Orlando Showmen, clear his name of involvement in a teammate's murder. She soon finds out that the game is exciting, but that her client is dubious and Central Florida, dangerous.
