Let Sleeping Dogs Lie

Mystery author, Mara
Byrne is woman who leads an idyllic life. She's an accomplished author and she's
married to her soul mate. For nearly thirty years she lived the perfect life in
sunny southern California, quite an
improvement from her impoverished childhood in rural Arkansas growing up with
six brothers.




Her world is turned upside down when the love of
her life, Thomas, dies suddenly. She is plunged into an abysmal depression
after her husband's death. Mara thought things couldn't get any worse, but then
she finds a mysterious letter in her husband's belongings. Did her husband of
thirty years have an affair? Who was this man she thought she knew? Overcome with daunting questions, Mara is
consumed with finding answers.




Perhaps by divine intervention, or maybe it was
just a fluke, she crosses paths with a handsome private detective, Alex
Strange, who happens to share the same name as the main character in her books.
He offers to help her find the truth about the letter and her husband by
locating the mysterious woman who wrote the letter.




As Mara and Alex delve into their investigation,
Mara is thrust into danger by people who want the letter and the secrets it
hold. These people are willing to do just about anything to get it as Mara
learns the hard way.




In a world where no one is who they seem to be
and secrets are around every corner, Mara has to decide if finding the truth is
worth her life and her sanity or if she should let sleeping dogs lie? Follow
Mara and Alex as they unravel the mystery of the letter.




Let Sleeping Dogs Lie is both a standalone novel
and the first book in a series of mysteries involving Mara and Alex. The second
novel of the series is projected to be released in 2013.
