No Accounting for Murder Shirley Gooch

No Accounting for Murder starts when, out of the blue, Suzanne's intuition screams, 'something's wrong with Margaret.' Her tax client, Margaret has never been one minute late for an appointment. Suzanne's intuition is vindicated, and she quickly turns amateur sleuth when Margaret's bank accounts turn up empty, then eighty-year-old Margaret turns up dead. Small-town Doc Spears says natural causes, but Suzanne knows better and begins at once to track down suspects. Before she can even prove there has been a murder, she digs up scandalous secrets in the old schoolteacher's past: infidelity, collusion, a twelve-year-old murder, and a million dollars in gold coins. Careers are at stake, and one of Suzanne's five suspects is on to her, and wants her stopped. Phone threats, ransacking her office, and attempts to break into her home don't dampen Suzanne determination. While she's up to her neck in tax clients, and trying to solve a murder, the town's deputy is more interested in our sexy sleuth than solving her mystery. Could he also be a suspect?No Accounting for Murder has more twist and turns than Oregon's coast highway. You'll be dizzy trying to follow the trail of the real killer.
