Skirting Disaster - Paperback

by Kay Keppler (Author)

Phoebe Renfrew, on leave from her job at the CIA, talks her way into apprenticing as a private investigator. Her first job takes her to Venture Automotive, an electric-vehicle manufacturing start-up, where someone has vandalized cars and stolen data.

The loss is devastating for CEO Chase Bonaventure, retired star quarterback of the Las Vegas Rattlesnakes-and the man Phoebe's almost certainly in love with. He's determined to stop the escalating damage before it's too late-and convince Phoebe that their relationship is worth fighting for.

As they close in on the culprit, the thief swears vengeance-permanently. Phoebe calls on everyone she knows-including two gossipy and competitive mothers, some NASCAR drivers, a squad of cheerleaders, and a marching band-for help. When the showdown comes at the Rattlesnakes stadium, everyone is at risk. Can Phoebe halt the heist-and figure out her relationship with Chase-before anyone gets hurt?
