The Stiff and the Dead — Lori Avocato

PAULINE HAS A DRUG PROBLEM...

Once a nurse, now a medical insurance fraud investigator, Pauline Sokol's going undercover in a local seniors' center, where prescriptions are still being filled for a patient who just happens to be dead. A little behind-the-scenes snooping reveals the hard facts: the recently deceased oldster was up to his jowls in an illegal Viagra ring. Not that Pauline begrudges these elderly gents their newfound virility, but it's unnerving to be in the middle of a group of sex-mad overaged lotharios who suddenly have the wherewithal to do something about it. It's bad enough that she keeps getting distracted by her own fantasies about her handsome co-worker Nick ... not to mention her dangerously sexy fellow investigator Jagger. However, there's nothing like a few more suspicious deaths to get a girl's mind back on her work -- especially if the next prescription for murder seems to have Pauline's name on it!
