Forensic Murder — Alec Peche

Who knows the most about how to get away with murder? Jill, Nathan, and Angela head to New Zealand and Australia on a trip that is part work and part vacation. Jill is speaking at a forensic conference, while her friends are meeting with wineries to conduct business. Dr. Jill Quint is a forensic pathologist by training. She left her crime lab to pursue her own winery but was called back by old colleagues to comment on cases. Those referrals expanded into a business where Jill offers second opinions on the cause of death. She also has her PI license and can be hired to investigate a suspicious death. Her friends assist her with cases by bringing their own skills like accounting, interviewing, and social media research. Nathan is her partner and is a world-renowned wine label designer.New Zealand has a reputation as a very safe country, so why are people dying in the cities she visited so far on her trip? They aren't dying by gunshot or stabbing, rather these are unusual 'accidents'. In time, it becomes clear that these deaths are staged as 'how to get away with murder' events by a professional. As Jill and her friends transition to Australia, will the killer follow them? Is Jill the final target? Read Forensic Murder for a crime story set down under.
