Death
Rang
Twice
When a man dies under mysterious circumstances, suspicion falls on those closest to him. Each suspect has motive. Each suspect has secrets.
The Mystery
When Quentin dies under mysterious circumstances after having survived colon cancer, the question becomes whether it was suicide or foul play. The investigation reveals a web of secrets and motives that implicate everyone close to him.
"Both Quentin's brother, Uriah, and life-long friend, Jules, are both financially distressed and could benefit from Quentin's death."
Despite Quentin's survival from cancer, his doctor is involved in a malpractice suit relating to Quentin's medical care. The case could be dismissed if Quentin were dead. And finally, a mysterious caregiver has reason to want Quentin dead to settle an old score.
Each of these suspects could benefit from Quentin's death. Each has secrets to hide. In Death Rang Twice, the truth is as elusive as the killer's identity.
