About the book . . .
It’s summertime, and in Goodship, New
York, the living is anything but easy. Controversial radio shock jock
Paul Hackett is found strangled to death with his headphone cord around
his neck in the studio of local radio station WSHP. There’s little
evidence beyond the initials V.O.S. scrawled across the studio window in
red lipstick and a list of suspects that could easily fill the Goodship
phone book. And that’s not all. Eliza Gordon, former soap star turned
local soup aficionado and amateur sleuth and her pal and unwitting
snooping partner radio DJ Midge Sumner must contend with in Dead Silent,
the second in author Amy Beth Arkawy’s Eliza Gordon Mystery series. The
locals are also on edge thanks to the rumors rolling across The
Goodship Grapevine, a new toxic gossip site, and bemused by flyers
heeding folks to follow an enigmatic cult known as “The Quiet.” Eliza’s
instincts have her searching for clues and connecting the mysteries
together, but they also put a strain on her burgeoning romance with Tom
Santini, Goodship’s dishy police chief (who also happens to be her late
husband’s best friend). The sudden reappearance of her elusive playboy
brother-in-law, Jonas Gordon, sparks unexpected feelings in Eliza and
may hold the key to connecting the mysteries and solving Hackett’s
murder. Join Eliza Gordon and sidekick Midge Sumner as they embark on
this intriguing and dangerous sleuthing escapade. Will they solve the
mystery or wind up Dead Silent?
