Why Kill an Angel — C. Lee Tocci

26-year old Jo D'Angelo likes the quiet laid back life she has made for herself as a real estate attorney in Boston. So when her free-spirit, danger-magnet sister Julie decides that they should become private detectives, she knows perfectly well that there is nothing but chaos on the horizon. And she is not wrong. Julie's first case is to prove Jo innocent of murder. But was someone trying to frame her? Or was she the intended victim? And if so, who would want to kill a boring little attorney? And why? Could it be the intriguing Tino Scollari? Former cop turned private investigator, is Tino's interest in Julie purely platonic? Or could this down-and-out detective have an ulterior motive for his kindness? And then there's Hogan O'Halloran, the rich and handsome real estate developer who is not used to having his deals upset, and certainly not by a little nobody like Jo D'Angelo. Her ex-fiancé, Phillip is not too eager to let her get away, and her ex-boss, Frank Bishop may be a little too eager to get rid of her. But are any of these enough of a reason to kill her?
