He cheated on her, lied to her, and destroyed her trust. Still even a divorce cannot fully sever the ties that bind country singer Maggie Reid with to her scoundrel of an ex-husband. When he is reported missing, Maggie swallows her pride and asks police detective Marshall J. Weathers, a man who once promised to call her but never did, for help. While there a perky rookie makes it clear she and Marshall are dating.
Looking for her missing ex, Maggie goes to Vernell's home where she encounters a stranger carrying a gun. He wants her ex-husband too and threatens her before kissing and leaving her. Maggie's life plunges even lower when Vernell's car is found with a body inside. The victim is a moneyman for the Redneck Mafia and the millions he carried is gone with Vernell rumored to be the last person to see him alive. Maggie knows that Vernell is a rat but not a killer so she begins making her own inquiries without understanding the danger she is now in from unsavory characters.

I have to say that I did not guess who the murderer is in this one. This was the second in the series and I enjoyed it, so I will read the whole series.
