No Such Thing As a Lost Soul: A Brandy Alexander Mystery (No Such Thing As.A Brandy Alexander Mystery Book 6)
€œDistraction€ is the name of the game for Brandy Alexander. But, a new job assisting an activist lawyer, a new fitness routine, and a slew of new hobbies including knitting, guitar, and learning Espanol, aren€t fending off her new heartbreak, as she pines for erstwhile boyfriend, enigmatic Nick Santiago, who left town mysteriously and hasn€t been heard from since.
Brandy€s not the only one with love woes. Ex-boyfriend , Bobby DiCarlo, struggles to maintain things with his new girlfriend; brother Paul and friend Janine don€t realize they€re perfect for each other; and Brandy thinks best friend John€s boyfriend hasn€t been that nice to John lately €“ and being mean to Brandy€s friends is a mortal sin in her book.
Brandy€s work load increases when boss Walter lands in the hospital after a snake-bite attack arranged by a vengeful ex-con from Walter€s past. As Brandy sets her sights on tracking down Walter€s attacker, she becomes the target of his vengeance.
Meanwhile, Brandy is also investigating the disappearance of Jennifer, the daughter of one of Walter€s old friends. Brandy discovers that the last person to know of Jennifer€s whereabouts was Dr. Eugene Wakefield, a spiritual guru with a checkered past. Wakefield insists that Jennifer has been sent on a €œmission,€ but Wakefield€s story isn€t holding holy water. When Jennifer€s body turns up, Brandy€s suspicions are confirmed. Brandy infiltrates the cult as a would-be €œlost soul€ to find some hard evidence on the slippery faux-pastor and his devoted following of women who would do anything to protect him.
Brandy has a lot on her plate when Nick reenters the picture. It€s rough going for the two, but at least they€ve got each other€s backs, locating Brandy€s attacker before he hunts her down, and working to expose the sinister Wakefield in No Such Thing as a Lost Soul: A Brandy Alexander Mystery.
