Dying to Call You

From Anthony and Agatha Award-winning author Elaine Viets-the thrilling mystery series about one woman trying to make a living... while other people are making a killing.

Still living under the radar in Fort Lauderdale due to her refusal to pay her ex-husband's spousal support, Helen Hawthorne's latest workaday job might just be the lowest rung on the employment ladder-telemarketing. She's spending her hours interrupting dinners and disturbing slumbers, and in return hearing curses and extremely rude suggestions.

Then, while Helen is conducting a phone survey with the wealthy Henry "Hank" Asporth, he puts the receiver down without hanging up…and Helen can't believe what she hears next. She can just make out a man and a woman arguing, a short scream cut off by a horrible choking sound, then an eerie silence followed by a final "click."

Convinced she just heard a murder being committed-but with no solid proof-Helen is driven to find out what really happened with Hank and the mystery woman. But if she's not careful, she just might end up holding a dead line of her own…
