About this series
All is not as it seems in Starling, Florida…
A phone call from a desperate teen, awaiting trial for felony murder, spurs Chief of Police Judith Anderson to re-open the case of a drug deal gone wrong.
She has mixed emotions about the felony murder charge—which can be brought against anyone involved in a felony that results in someone's death—and her investigation finds more questions than answers. How did two white gang members involved end up with sweet plea deals, while the Latino kid with no record is charged with felony murder?
Meanwhile, attempts on the life of Starling's mayor and glimpses around town of her lover talking to various women divide Judith's attention and stir up her old demons of distrust. As she tries to keep both the mayor and her love life alive while ferreting out what really happened the night that drug deal went sideways, she begins to wonder…
Are all these cases related—all strands of a sinister web, with much more at stake than one kid's freedom or her own heart?

- Lethal Assumptions: A C.o.P. on the Scene Mystery, #1
1
There's a new female cop on the scene! Judith Anderson's no-nonsense attitude and confidence served her well in her climb to homicide lieutenant in the Baltimore County PD, but that confidence is shaken when she finds herself one step behind a serial killer—just eight days into her new job as Chief of Police in a small Florida city. The first victim, a female college student, may be a case of wrong place, wrong time. But the bodies keep coming, with a mishmash of MOs, and the murders may be linked to various cases in nearby Jacksonville. While Judith assumed the CoP job would be challenging, she's finding it harder than she imagined to establish her authority without alienating and be more hands-on without micro-managing. Plus, evidence is stacking up that there's a leak in her department. Who can she trust? If she makes the wrong assumption, the wrong decision, it may be her last. In a race to save lives, she'll draw on every talent and instinct that made her a star in Baltimore. But will that be enough this time? Fans of JA Jance's Sheriff Joanna Brady and JD Robb's Eve Dallas will love this new female cop on the scene!

Kassandra Lamb
In her youth, Kassandra Lamb had two great passions—psychology and writing. Advised that writers need day jobs—and being partial to eating—she studied psychology. Her career as a psychotherapist and college professor taught her much about the dark side of human nature, but also much about resilience, perseverance, and the healing power of laughter. Now retired, she spends most of her time in an alternate universe populated by her fictional characters. The portal to this universe (aka her computer) is located in northern Florida where her husband and dog catch occasional glimpses of her. She has written three series: The Kate Huntington Mysteries, The Kate on Vacation Mysteries, and the Marcia Banks and Buddy Cozy Mysteries. And she's now started a fourth series of police procedurals, The C.o.P. on the Scene Mysteries.
