Bossy Nos & Circulation Woes

Avery Shaw thinks things are bumping right along-her ongoing war with the ducks invading her pool notwithstanding-but she's quickly disavowed of that notion when her arch nemesis Tad Ludington's task force invades her backyard and arrests her cousin Mario on suspicion of serial murder.
Mario has been in trouble before-not of his making-but this time the deck seems to be stacked against him...right up until Avery realizes that Tad is bringing charges with zero proof. He can't even prove that women are dead.
When Avery digs in, determined to make him look like an idiot, she discovers an unfortunate problem. There isa serial killer on the loose...and no bodies have yet been discovered. So Tad is on to something, and there's nothing Avery wants more than to take his prize from him.
That means partnering with Sheriff Jake Farrell, who demands to be in control just as often as Avery. Together, they're going to butt heads...and figure out that there really is a monster on the loose in Macomb County.
Avery is working hard, but there are others working against her. Between Tad, a local attorney out for blood, her own co-workers, and the history of the women themselves, she's got her hands full.
Giving up isn't an option in Avery's world.
There's one thing Avery Shaw doesn't do. Lose. How is she going to win this time?
