BEAUTIFUL DEATH
The third book in the CJ O'Hara Crime Thrillers series.​
A corpse exposes one of Charleston’s lethal secrets...
CJ O’Hara is finally getting a grip on life. Recently promoted and in a promising relationship, the hard-charging detective responds to a supposed heart attack at a bed and breakfast… but her instincts scream foul play. Smelling a hint of vanilla in the air and noticing scratches on the victim’s back, she suspects she’s looking for a murderess.
After the medical exam reveals poison from a rare plant, CJ sets off on the trail of mysterious DNA evidence leading to the depths of hidden societies. But when the homicide pattern matches multiple cold cases, the tough-minded investigator fears more than one killer could be lurking in the city’s darkest shadows.
When toxic history repeats, can she end a mortally vicious cycle?
Beautiful Death is the gritty third book in the CJ O’Hara crime thriller series. If you like sharp investigators, captivating twists and turns, and fast-paced suspense, then you’ll love John Deal’s deadly tale of deception.
