Dead Easy — Phillip Depoy

SHE LIED. HE KNOWS. SOMETIMES THE TRUTH CAN KILL.

Threatening notes. Grisly packages promising worse to come. On a dark street outside a nightclub called Easy, a man is gunned down--by a handsome killer everyone thought was dead. Someone is stalking club owner Dalliance Oglethorpe, someone from a past she thought she had left behind. Flap Tucker, Daily's knight in not-so-shining armor, prides himself on seeing through reality's illusions. But what he discovers about his longtime love will catch him blind.

There is a lot Flap doesn't know--and a lot he has to find out, soon, about himself and the woman he thought he knew best. But Dally wants Flap to keep his distance. She thinks he may have had a hand in murder. And Flap has reason to suspect Dally herself. If they are to make it through the long, dark night, Flap must find the real killer, a real motive, and the real truth behind Daily's lost years--and the secrets she has never been able to reveal--before it's too late.
