Needled to Death

Motivated by her own difficult past, Hildy has an unparalleled commitment to supporting troubled clients through grief and addiction in Sorenson, Wisconsin. But when a distraught group therapy member reveals disturbing details about her late son’s potential murder, Hildy goes from dedicated mental health professional to in-over-her-head amateur sleuth …

Alongside her loyal therapy Golden Retriever, Hildy stumbles through incriminating clues-and an unlikely partnership with Detective Bob Richmond, the irresistibly headstrong cop who shares her passion for helping others. With signs of foul play surfacing all over town, can Hildy and Detective Richmond pinpoint the deadly traits of a sharp-witted killer before another seat gets filled at grief therapy?

Praise for Annelise Ryan and her Mattie Winston series

The funniest deputy coroner to cut up a corpse since, well, ever!
-Laura Levine, author of Killer Cruise

The forensic details will interest Patricia Cornwell readers … while the often slapstick humor and the blossoming romance between Mattie and Hurley will draw Evanovich fans.
