About The Book:

Detective Susan Ford and her new partner, Detective Jack Tomelli, are called to a crime scene at the local summer stock theater where they find the director of Murder on the Orient Express gruesomely murdered—naked, face caked in makeup, pillow at his feet, wrists and ankles bound by rope. When Susan describes the murder to her dad, retired detective Will Ford, he recognizes the MO of a 1969 serial killer . . . a case he worked fifty years ago.

Will remembers a lot of things about that summer—the Woodstock Festival, the Apollo 11 moon landing, the Miracle Mets—yet he is fuzzy on the details of the decades-old case. But when Susan and Jack discover the old case files, his memories start trickling back. And with each old and new clue, Susan, Jack, and Will must narrow down the pool of suspects before the killer strikes again.

“An old case has repercussions on a new copycat killing in this excellent police procedural. With juicy twists, an engaging cast, and an intriguing case that’s impossible to predict, The Summer of Love and Death is everything I want in a mystery. An addictive and entertaining ride!” —Christina McDonald, USA Today Bestselling Author

“McCreary unspools a lot of threads in The Summer of Love and Death, then masterfully weaves them all together atop the Ford family’s compelling dynamic for an ending you won’t see coming. It’s a fun ride that kept me guessing the whole time!” —Tony Wirt, Bestselling author of Just Stay Away

————————————————————————

“Marcy McCreary’s The Summer of Love and Death is a fiendishly smart modern whodunnit with clever characters and a mystery that keeps you guessing. With a local theater as the backdrop, Detective Susan Ford has her work cut out for her. She’s always had a knack for sussing out lies, but when your suspects are actors, even Susan is left wondering. McCreary is a gifted writer who has created a page-turning mystery that will keep you up all night—then just when you think you’ve figured it out—you discover how wrong you are. Bravo!”  –Elise Hart Kipness, author of Lights Out
