Lady Killer by Lisa Scottoline

Scottoline's readers welcome back heroine Mary DiNunzio in a story of friendship, threats of murder and murder, and Mary takes a giant step forward as she trusts her own instincts risking her beloved job with Rosato & Associates. Mary's high school rival, Trish Gambone, asks for help with her abusive and violent live-in. Trish is afraid to follow through on Mary's suggestions because of Bobby's connection with the mob, but she is equally afraid of Bobby's physical violence and his threats to kill her. This is a great read. Liked it a lot. Sandy P
