Book 2

In A Deadly Entanglement, two queer women in turn-of-the-century New York must work together to uncover the rotten truth. The truth isn’t always easy… Margot Baxter Harriman has just survived her deadliest scandal as President of B&H Foods, and there’s nowhere to go but up. Which is why she’s organising a fundraiser for the crowded, overworked city charity hospital, hoping to do good and give back–until a body falls past a third-floor window.

The nurse’s death is quickly ruled a suicide, but fellow nurse CeeCee Foxmoor isn’t so sure: this isn’t the first suspicious death. As Margot’s friend and the live-in partner of investigator Rett Mancini, CeeCee’s concerns draw both Margot and Rett into an undercover scheme to untangle the threads behind the deaths everyone else is ready to overlook. But another death catches their attention: Margot's old classmate checked into the Caspian, a luxury clinic catering to the New York elite, and never checked out.

And the circumstances surrounding her death feel eerily familiar... As both the secrets and bodies pile up, Rett and Margot realise that while money can buy anything, behind ward doors, everyone pays a price. This time, their search for the truth might cost the people they love.

Cathy Pegau’s A Deadly Entanglement is the captivating follow-up to A Murderous Business, where two women’s determination challenges the cost of greed–and the price of failure.
