Adina Donati, Accidental Sleuth Book 1
By Cassidy Salem
Genre: Cozy Mystery
Good friends, wine and conversation… Great fun – until somebody turns
up dead.
Adina Donati came to Washington D.C.
to find excitement, not a dead body.
When a friend is murdered, Adina is drawn into the middle of the
police investigation. Tensions rise as the suspect list expands to
include Adina, her friends, and colleagues at the prestigious think
tank where she works. But every cloud has a silver lining. Between
the nice detective, the hot new volunteer at the dog rescue center,
and the newly available preppy ex-boyfriend, Adina’s dating dry
spell appears near its end. That is, if she doesn’t become the next victim.
Dying For Data
Adina Donati, Accidental Sleuth Book 2
A rival
suitor and a deadly attack are enough to put a damper on any date.
A romantic evening with a hot guy goes
downhill fast when dinner is
interrupted by the scream of sirens and the arrival of Adina’s
favorite police detective.
Afraid her bartender boyfriend might be
accused of murder, Adina’s neighbor
enlists her assistance, and in the process exposes her to the seamier
side of illegal immigration and crime in the city. Hard as she tries
to limit her involvement, the more Adina learns, the more she needs
to know – until a case of mistaken identity lands her in hot water.
Will she uncover the truth before it’s too late?
Killer Reputation

Adina can’t resist snooping when

enough to want him dead. Can the young research assistant, her quirky
neighbor, and a lovable rescue pup help the police put together the
pieces of the puzzle?

“I understand that this is upsetting, however I need you to think back to what you
saw. Close your eyes. Try to remember and describe everything you did and saw from
the time you entered the restroom.”
I took a deep breath and let it out slowly, then described the scene to him to the
best of my recollection. I could almost envision the restroom as it had been when I
entered. The white sinks, the gray and white swirly wall tiles, and the open stall doors.
Seemingly empty, until I approached the end stall.
It all came back to me and I started to tremble. “Hilary was laying on the floor, on
her side, her hair falling into that pool of blood. Shockingly red and dark in contrast to
the cool gray of the ceramic floor tiles.” Something wasn’t right, “Something bright
green in her hair?”
I opened my eyes to find the detective watching me. He nodded. “You did great.”
