ALABASTER ALIBI
Thirty-two-year-old Allie has hit rock bottom.

Fired, disbarred and divorced, she's been relegated to minimum wage obscurity. Things look up when she inherits THE ALABASTER, a rock and gem shop, in trendy new age Sedona. Unfortunately for this ex-lawyer, this inheritance comes with murder.

THE MYSTERY
Allie is horrified to discover her uncle was brutally stabbed to death and his body left near the cash register. According to the bull-headed police officer in charge of the case, it was a break-and-entry job-the killer stole the cash and ran. As a former prosecutor, Allie is unimpressed with the police chief's small town mentality and his crime investigative skills. She suspects his conclusions are wrong. It's more likely the person who murdered her uncle was someone he knew and possibly trusted.
When the police chief refuses to further investigate the murder, Allie decides to track down the killer herself-her uncle Jasper deserves justice. Determined to solve the murder while navigating a new career, she follows clues that lead to the dark secrets of more one suspect.
As Allie gets closer to the truth she discovers, almost too late, that the murderer will kill again without a second thought.

"If you're looking for a clever, resourceful protagonist, Allie "Alabaster" Renault is the sleuth for you. This first novel in the Rock Shop Mysteries is a fun read, full of wit, twists, and humor in the "New Age" world of Sedona, Arizona. It's not just a light-hearted cozy, since it also deals thoughtfully with the challenges of a single woman trying to regain her life. . . All in all, highly recommended." - 5 STARS Jennifer Sowle (Amazon customer)
