Yesterday's Shadow: A Scobie Malone Novel

Love never dies unless a killer intervenes.

The Hotel Southern Savoy has become the reluctant host to two corpses on a single night and homicide inspector Scobie Malone knows this investigation will be a nightmare from the moment he arrives. The first victim was the wife of the American ambassador, a slaying that will certainly have international repercussions and worse, if the lady s dark secrets are ever revealed. But it s the second murder that strikes straight at Malone s heart. The dead man was the husband of a woman from Malone s past, a brief love long over but never forgotten. An assassin has violently blended Malone s personal and professional lives in a lethal stew of blood and memory, and there s no way the dedicated policeman s going to walk away from this one unscathed. But even Scobie Malone doesn t realize how deadly a concoction it truly is and by the time he does, it may be too late.
