The Ideal Man, Is a Woman

When Henry Braxton, a wealthy, womanizing, divorced Black man is brutally murdered, the primary detective, Alexia Carson, is overwhelmed with suspects. There's the attractive younger sister who loves her brother but disagrees with his treatment of his wife and child. Then there's his first wife, who loves the victim but can't forgive his numerous and very public affairs during their marriage. Another suspect is his lesbian daughter who has always had a love-hate relationship with Henry. Finally, there are the six members of his company's board that he had affairs with or insulted during their terms of office.

Most of the people in Henry Braxton's life have the potential to be suspects. It's up to Alexia, just coming off a nine-month medical leave from a severe back injury, and her partner, who is married her cousin, to sort out the suspects and determine who did the dastardly deed. When a budding attraction between Sarah, the victim's sister, and Alexia develops, combined with the fact that one of the suspect board members is Alexia's ex-lover, it is one tangled web of secrets and intrigue
