Dead Men Don't Flip

Conjoined at the hip?

Rika is excited to have snagged her first private investigation client, even if it's just a suspected cheater case. But when she and Nick get inside the supposedly empty house, they find two men in bed together, literally joined at the hip, one dead with a screwdriver sticking out of his eye. Grigore Vatamanu has been murdered the night before their planned separation surgery, and his conjoined twin Teodor must be rushed to the hospital before he dies, too!

Nick and Rika learn the twins are the eldest brothers of the Vatamanu family, Cirque de Sorbet's most popular act, and the cheater investigation turns into a murder case. But with a circus full of angry performers, a desperate documentary crew, and the surviving twin's sketchy fiancée, the case is chock-full of possible murderers with little evidence against any of them.

As they investigate, Nick is eager to get this relationship nailed downpreferably by nailing Rika. He seizes an unexpected opportunity, but can he get past whatever's been holding her back and make it stick? And can he keep Rika and LeeAnne from getting themselves killed before Rika is his?
