Faint Praise

Ellen Hart

–Publishers Weekly

Everyone knows Arno Heywood. He’s been a Minneapolis TV personality for years. So when he jumps to his death from a downtown high-rise, it’s a shocker–especially since he dies wearing women’s clothes, a suicide in drag.

In chic Linden Lofts, where Arno lived, the other tenants are spooked, and smart investigator Jane Lawless soon finds out why. They, like Arno, have secrets to conceal, and the shadowy someone with a full set of keys who’s scouting out their apartments may soon make that impossible. Can one of Linden Loft’s upscale professionals really be an aspiring blackmailer? Before Jane and her pal Cordelia can make sure, a brutal murder ups the ante. . . .

‘The plot resonates with fascinating details, a good bit of action, several keen twists, and a soupçon of romance for the protagonist.’

–Alfred Hitchcock Mystery Magazine

‘The characters are diverse and well rounded, the plot is intriguing, and the style lively and literate.’

–The Armchair Detective
