Nan Hollaway, a 70-something TV talk show host in Upstate New York, was foisted on debonair, silver-haired detective Alex Rayburn as an unwelcome partner in solving a crime of international proportions. Following the successful conclusion of their first case, the problematic pair found themselves involved in more unlikely adventures - as well as an unlikely affair of the heart. What now? A quiet walk in the cemetery leads to an encounter with a frantic escaped prisoner who begs Alex to prove his innocence. Nan and Alex’s nubile grandniece Dani join in the Perilous Pursuits of the bad guys, but it’s Alex who must ultimately brave a watery grave. In Golden Retrievals, a historic buried treasure becomes an intriguing case for Alex and Nan. All is happily resolved until one dark and stormy night when an unlikely miscreant makes his move at the Rayburn mansion.
Silver-haired sleuth Alex Rayburn and one-time network journalist Nan Holloway were less than thrilled to be forced into a crime-solving partnership. After a series of exciting and successful cases, their relationship warmed – a lot. Now a couple thoroughly enjoying their seventh decade, Alan and Nan take on two of their weirdest challenges in this volume. A head in a box, accompanied by a cryptic couplet, puzzles the pair in Poetic Justice. Can Alex and Nan keep their heads and catch the culprit? To complicate things, an old family friend returns from the past to become a prime suspect. In Neighborhood Buzz, a lawn party at the Rayburn mansion, a Ferrari show, and a visit from the Governor make for a festive Fourth of July. But there’s a deadly menace in the air. When danger strikes close to home, Alex must outrace the villains to save Nan.
Nan Holloway, a one-time network TV correspondent, is now barely making it as a PR consultant in small Upstate New York. Enter Alex Rayburn—a silver-haired man-about-town and a matchless detective, at least in his own mind. Life quickly changes for Nan, leaving her both titillated and terrified. In Adventure One: Reappearing Persons, Nan spots an ominous figure from the past and a missing woman reappears—dead. Nan and Alex are brought together in an uneasy partnership that turns out to be more dangerous—and more fun—than either of them anticipated. In Adventure Two: Unrelated Incidents, a cigar store Indian is stolen from Alex’s favorite tobacco emporium, and Nan learns of a threat made to a Native American environmental activist. Can the problematic pair uncover the sinister connection between these seemingly unrelated incidents without falling prey to a ruthless landowner and his murderous minions?
