Questionable Behavior — J. Dayne Lamb

She's Teal Stewart, sorceress of the spreadsheets--a cool, classy CPA who's got Boston's number. She's looking for love...but headed for trouble.

DEATH IN THE BALANCE

Teal Stewart cools her elegant heels daily in the lobby of the First New England Building, waiting for the elevator that takes her to the international accounting offices of Clayborne Whittier. Then one morning the doors open and a man falls at her feet--a very dead man.

It adds up to murder when the victim turns out to be Mark Konstat, a journalist who was investigating the mob's moves on the Boston banking system. Swept into the intrigue, Teal finds a promising new companion in Konstat's crony, the handsome v.p. of a hot new sporting gear company. Something doesn't tally, though. Baffled by a string of deadly "accidents", Teal tracks the facts and figures from Cambridge to California in a race to balance the books, block the mob and catch a cunning killer who's banking on one more death. Hers.
