No Solace for the Wicked

When a man's wife disappears without a trace, Celia's hunt for the missing woman soon becomes a search for a killer . . .Celia Davies once hounded Dennis Merrill as a suspect for a murder he didn't commit, so she's more than a little surprised when he shows up at her door asking for help. His wife has vanished into thin air, and even the woman she was with at the time of her disappearance has no clue where she could be. Celia still doesn't completely trust Merrill, but she begins to search for clues that might lead to his wife-right up until the moment when the young woman's dead body is found. While Celia shifts her focus to finding Mrs. Merrill's murderer, Detective Nick Greaves is convinced that Merrill himself killed his wife and is determined to prove it. But neither Celia nor Nick can find a reliable witness or a solid lead, and then another young woman is found murdered. Suddenly the death of this latest victim exposes a web of relationships that had eluded Celia and Nick, with everyone involved hiding their own wicked motives . . .
