Mystery

Bill Glasscock, a suspended-for-malpractice attorney, wakes from his girlfriend Sally Solana's bed to a crystalline May morning in Splendor Bay. Before noon, Bill faces the challenge of his life. The stiff the local cops have found on the beach below Sally's bayview mansion is Bill's soon-to-be-ex-wife Eleana's lover, Governor Wallace Moreno. Bill's girlfriend Sally, the state's attorney general, is missing. So is wife Eleana, head of the state archives. And, in addition to having a complicated love life, Bill is quickly the prime suspect of a host of cops--local, state, and federal. All of which is just the catalyst Bill needs to abandon his sabbatical from life for a quest to save those he loves from a murderer. Suspense, sensual relationships, quirky characters you will love and remember, crisp dialogue, wry humor, and a feel-good ending are a few of the reasons SPLENDOR BAY grabs you by the heart and sweeps you along on waves of emotion to its surprising conclusion.

A federal prosecutor, the nemesis of Washington elite, is murdered at a posh Bayou City hotel. His wife is found with the gun at the scene and her motive is obvious -- he did her wrong and she caught him in the act. The wife is arrested quickly. 
Perhaps too quickly, Assistant District Attorney Virginia Rodriguez soon realizes, but a dismissal isn’t that simple. Powerful people want a conviction and more than Virginia’s career is on the line -- calculating killers have added her name to their list. Virginia is smart and sassy, and she can hold her own against Leo Zachmann, the high-profile defense attorney who has taken up the wife’s cause. But can she deliver Texas justice in a case where the truth is much more elusive than the evidence? 
Promises Town delivers a rich blend of memorable characters, a fascinating view of the two-sided search for truth in criminal cases, an intriguing mystery, wry humor, and Virginia Rodriguez, a woman who has it all -- a killer of a job, a child and a dog to feed, a house to keep, promises to remember, and no Prince Charming in view.
