He knows he’s more than just another washed-up ex-cop. Solving a murder will help him prove it…

A straight-shooter who lives on a boat and likes a drink or two, Henry’s frustrated he can’t even land work as a dispatcher. And his job running security for a local baseball team is far from his idea of excitement.

But the morning after the season ends, he’s at his friend’s bar and takes a call that could change everything…

Turns out a couple of fishermen pulled third baseman Lance Moreau’s body from the St. Johns River. And his teammate’s been arrested for the murder.

The team’s owner turns to Henry to help prove the cops have the wrong man.

Lucky for him he has Alex Jepson on his side. She’s beautiful. She’s tough. And as Henry likes to say…she’s the one with the brains.

They’re a good match, in more ways than one.

Now all they have to do is find the real killer.

A dead body in Santa’s lap is not what Harvey Beckett wanted for Christmas.

But on the first day of the holiday season, a man stumbles into Santa’s lap and dies, threatening the holiday spirit . . . and bringing a slew of questions that Harvey can’t resist trying to answer.

Will Harvey’s queries land her, her friends – and their dogs – in a load of trouble?
