DEATH, GREED, and INTRIGUE are the stuff of detective novels and not expected in a prestigious coastal enclave. But there is plenty after the chairman of Newport Beach's esteemed bank is found murdered. Enter single mom Beverly Battersby, the bank's hardworking CFO. Devastated by her mentor's death, she is horrified to discover the new executives above her are mobsters in the process of embezzling millions-which would leave her beloved community in ruins-and intend to lay the blame squarely on her. Infuriated, Beverly pulls together her own covert team to take down the swindlers, with the help of Alaskan banker Robert Langdon. Even as her squad explodes into action, the threat against Beverly escalates, and she's forced to set aside her growing romance with Robert and to go into hiding in the Alaskan wilderness. But if the assassins track her down, is she capable of defending and protecting her small family? And will those bilking her bank and community ever face their crimes? Follow Beverly as she utilizes all her wits and untested skills to bring to justice an enemy who plays dirty.
Autorenporträt
During his experience as a lumberjack, merchant seaman, insurance executive, cattleman, and writer, William Avery acquired an enormous respect for industrious and courageous women. As a child he witnessed his mother run the farm and wield a rifle to put game on the table for her five children. She was his inspiration and, some say, his model for independent women-and that would be all right too. After producing Ouachita Heritage, a well-received work chronicling five generations of his family, Avery turned to fiction, his first love, to write Beverly's Justice. He lives with his wife in Orange County, California. They enjoy traveling to exotic locales, including recent trips to Georgetown; Penang, Malaysia; Singapore; and Phuket Island, Thailand, revisiting places first explored by Avery as a lad.
