"D" is for Deadbeat: He called himself Alvin Limardo, and the job he had for Kinsey seemed simple: locate a kid who'd done him a favor and give him a check for $25,000. It was only later, after he'd stiffed her for her retainer, that Kinsey found out his real name was John Daggett. Ex-con. Liar. Drunk. Now dead. Without particularly wanting to, Kinsey finds herself drawn into the dead man's life, and learns that his so-called accidental death by drowning could have been murder. He certainly had enough enemies - like the families of the five people he killed with his wild, drunken driving. And much as Daggett was a miserable excuse for a human being, Kinsey knows that murder is not an acceptable solution.

"E" is for Evidence: 'Twas the season, and Kinsey was feeling anything but merry when an unexplained check for $5,000 was deposited to her account - leading to the realization that somebody was setting her up to look like she was on the take. There's evidence planted; evidence lost. There's "E" for everything she stands to lose if she can't prove her innocence. She begins to dig, as only she can, discovering that her future is intimately tied to one family's past and to the explosive secret it has protected for over twenty years. She follows a trail of murder that leads to her own front door and the distinct possibility that "E" could stand for eternal - as in eternal rest - hers.

"F" is for Fugitive: Floral Beach was a sleepy beach town fronting the Pacific where seventeen years ago the strangled body of Jean Timberlake, a wild kind of teenager, had been found. A self-confessed killer, Bailey Fowler, was tried, convicted, and then released only a year after the murder, never to be seen or heard from again. Suddenly, seventeen years later, Bailey Flower is found, and his old, sick father hires Kinsey to right a wrong. It was a long shot, but that was Kinsey's specialty, especially when it came to murder.
