A Deadly Hand dealt by a handy author

If you have read the Dana Sloan mysteries by Carol Costa before, you know how clever both ladies are. If this is your introduction to them, you're in for a treat. Carol guides her investigative reporter character, Dana, through the labyrinth of clues, real and unrewarding, until she, Dana, with the help of Bruno, her cop S.O., brings the mystery to a successful conclusion. Once again Carol Costa creates a page-turner of the most comfortable hot chocolate-and-curl up in your reading robe and favorite easy chair sort.
