Publisher's Synopsis
Book #2 in the Kate Matthews Mysteries Series
Kate Matthews expected to face challenges when she was elected to the Santa Barbara City Council. She hadn't counted on her sister-in-law, Michelle, being one of them.
Kate understood that Michelle was mentally ill and periodically homeless. What she didn't understand was why Michelle turned up in Santa Barbara only to disappeared again-until the police announced that Michelle was wanted in connection with a murder.
Wading through the morass of Michelle's life in order to find out the truth while also handling Council politics and issues proves to be more complicated than Kate could ever have anticipated. When her wife and children become entangled in the quagmire, Kate finds out just how much she is willing to do to save her family.
