Four Keys and a Cabin
Private investigator, Joe Conrad, and his assistant, Kelly Murphy, were asked to help search for a young woman who’d been kidnapped early in the morning while opening her boutique. Detective Reynolds had little to go on—there were no fingerprints and no witnesses—but Kelly’s intuition led her to believe that Sara may have more to fear than just the kidnapper. Did the photo hold the clue?
“Rachael,” Dottie stammered, “I don’t think this is some drunk playing a sick game. The psychic was right: We’re in danger! This creep’s trying to kill us!
After inheriting Uncle Billy’s cabin in Tennessee, his niece, Rachael, and her friends start out on a fun vacation together, oblivious to the danger awaiting them. Things begin to unravel when Rachael learns her uncle may not have died from drowning, as she was told. The police believe he may have been murdered!
Uncle Billy left four keys with instructions as to what each opened. Not wanting to accept that his death was anything but an accident, she doesn’t realize the keys unlock evidence identifying her uncle’s killer until it’s nearly too late…that someone is out there who knows the secrets hidden in the cabin and will stop at nothing to get them.
Sedona's Deadly Secret, is the sequel to Only by Chance in Cripple Creek, and is Debby Arthur Warner's third mystery.
... She had an eerie feeling that she was being watched, and when she turned to leave, she saw the man in the red Huskers cap coming quickly toward her. Something about his demeanor frightened her, and she started to run just as a group of hikers came down the path. He briskly turned in the opposite direction and hurried away, and Kelly followed the hikers until she got closer to the parking lot, then ran to her car. Out of breath and shaken, she could hardly control the keys to unlock the car. Once inside, she locked the doors and sped away, hoping she wasn't being followed. Whether there was any importance to the knife or not, Kelly couldn't be sure, but she felt anxious and had a sense that it had its own story to tell.
Only by Chance in Cripple Creek
Accident or murder. . .what really happened to Kelly's best friend, Tara, at the Colorado National Monument? The officer ruled it an accident. She fell off a cliff, he said. Kelly's intuition told her otherwise.
Two months after Tara's funeral, Kelly, a reporter from Grand Junction, Colorado, sets out, taking Tara's diary with her, on a long overdue vacation to try and make some sense of her friend's death. As chance would have it, on her way to New Mexico, Kelly gets caught in a frightening blizzard and has to take refuge in Cripple Creek, where Tara used to spend a lot of time.
Finding herself stranded for a few days, Kelly begins to work at unravelling the events of Tara's death with the help of a private eye, who is investigating another Cripple Creek mystery. As a result of her probing, Kelly puts her own life at risk.
