When Self-improvement Turns Deadly

Insurance agency programmer Dana Sanderson only wants peace and quiet at work. A desire her micromanaging boss somehow never respects.

Then the investigation of a rash of suspicious natural death claims lands on Dana’s laptop.

Failure means huge payouts for the company. Success means a huge bonus for her.

Find out if Dana’s risks outweigh her rewards in this clever cybercrime mystery.

A Dana Sanderson Short Mystery

An excerpt from The Sound of Murder:

“If you know about me,” Dana said, “you know why I can’t get back into hacking, Mr. Redmond. That part of my life is over.”

“I’m not asking you to get into their bank accounts. Just find the common thread. Take a look, a careful look, and see what you come up with. Don’t worry about your usual projects for now. There’s a full year’s salary bonus for whoever works this out.”

“A full…” Dana shook her head, quite certain she’d misunderstood. “You’re offering me a year’s pay? How could it be worth that?”

She didn’t have to do the math. That much money would pay off her college debts and everything else she’d racked up putting her past firmly behind her. The prospect of returning to her hacker life, even temporarily, felt slightly less dreadful now.

“These were all in our lowest risk pool,” he said, raising his eyebrows. “Several of them had policies worth ten times your salary. Trust me. It’s worth it.

An excerpt from The Fabulous Feats of Billy:

The first line you cross is the easiest

Billy pulled the power cord out, running it idly through his fingers.

The lax security and asset tracking wasn’t all he knew about Gossalor. 

He knew the yearly, quarterly, and monthly profit numbers for the place. They were nowhere near AllState or State Farm numbers, no. 

But they were easily a thousand times more profitable than the amount Billy was pulling his hair out over.

And twenty-eight thousand wasn’t much, not really. Not compared to the settlements Gossalor paid out every single day. Many times a day. Paying out was part of doing business for them, and they clearly had plenty to spare.

Sometimes a gold-plated nest could do without a feather or two.

Especially if no one would ever be the wiser.

Sometimes a stumped investigation needs a non-standard mind.
A perfect case for Dana and her best friend Andre to work their magic.
Can they solve the crime before the next victim's time runs out?

An excerpt from Melting Point:

Mira took a long drink of her coffee, staring out over the trees outside before she focused on Dana again.

"We've got the suspect, sure. Sitting in lockup, smug as hell, and not saying a word. What we need from you, Dana, is how on earth she did it."

Dana drew back, blinking. "Me? I'm just an insurance investigator. This is your field. Surely the GBI has people on this." "

They do. And they're coming up empty so far. Some of these cases are months old. They're afraid this woman had a longer list of people she was paid to knock off."

Mira took a deep breath and closed her eyes for a few seconds.

"They'll probably find it," she said, "but I can't stop wondering what would have happened if someone totally innocent had walked into that bedroom instead. Like maybe her niece or nephew."

When the cat drags in a mystery

A cold IT dungeon, full of noisy servers and grumpy workers. Not exactly a natural fit for a cat.
Until you consider blinking lights and all those places to hide. And folks more comfortable with animals than other people.
But this cat discovers toys more disturbing than cute.
What will Dana find in the impossible hiding place?

An excerpt from Three Computer Geeks Gruff

Gayle sat back, rubbing her chin and staring at a bright red line on the screen.

“Huh. Looks like Mr. Rawson is under suspension. Hasn’t reported to work at all for a week, or even called in. Still doesn’t explain how this thing got down here.”

She held the token up, turning the smooth black plastic back and forth.

When Peluda jumped up on the desk this time, she held a heavy gold ring in her teeth. A man’s college class ring, from the looks of it, with a big sapphire stone and lots of engraving.

“What the hell?” Gayle absently patted Peluda’s head as she extracted the ring and held it up to the light. A gold G with a T joined to it.

“Please tell me McGranville went to Georgia Tech,” Dana said, trying to catch her breath through the falling sensation in her gut. “Please tell me that’s his ring.”
