Description for ASK THE CARDS A QUESTION by Marcia Muller: PRIVATE EYE SHARON MCCONE IS faced with a murder case too close for comfort--who would have wanted to kill Molly Antonio, the nicest lady in Sharon's building? The San Francisco neighborhood seems a pretty sleepy place for a murder; the most exotic tenant is the hat-faced Madame Anya, who tells fortunes for five dollars... and who had warned Molly that the cards foretold evil things in store for her. Sharon realizes that her impulsive and heavy-drinking friend Linnea Carraway was the last person to see Molly alive, and may be the prime suspect. As the detective works against time to find the killer and clear her friend, she encounters adventures that threaten not only her professional credibility, but even her life. A string of big-time deals, brutal blackmail, and murder to which even the experts have been blind lead Sharon to a surprising solution--just in time. This is #2 in A Sharon McCone Mystery. Show more
