Blue Murder

After footballer Duane Kent-a rising star in the youth league-gets stabbed in a street brawl outside a nightclub, Janine and her team investigate. They soon find that the dead teen seems to have led a double life, far from the golden boy image held up by his parents, girlfriend, and coaches.

In the midst of a much-publicized malpractice lawsuit, Dr. Donald Halliwell is shot dead outside his office. Then a disgruntled doctor in Halliwell's practice goes missing. Janine and Richard uncover a real mess in the good doctor's personal and professional life, and plenty of motives for murder.

Only a week before the regiment's deployment to the Persian Gulf, a sergeant major dies on the supposedly friendly confines of his base, the victim of a vicious attack. Called to the scene, Janine seems quite taken by her handsome military counterpart in the investigation. But Richard believes that the military has its own agenda, and his suspicions involve more than mere jealousy.
