From New York Times bestseller Elle Cosimano comes Finlay Donovan Plays with Fire—the explosive next installment in the Finlay Donovan series.
When Finlay Donovan showed up at Stacey Pickens’s house to defend herself and her loved ones against Stacey’s vicious rumor mill, she uttered a veiled threat, never daring to imagine she might be one of the last people to see her busy-body neighbor alive.
News gets out that Stacey has vanished and there are signs of foul play. Her jacket and keys were found discarded in the woods behind the community playground, covered in blood. To make matters worse, the forensic photographer documenting the crime scene is none other than the ex-fiancée of Finlay’s hot cop boyfriend Nick. The only bright spot is that no one seems to know about Finlay’s altercation with Stacey, except Finlay’s loyal nanny, Vero, who’s hiding a combustible secret of her own.
As the missing persons investigation escalates to a possible homicide, Finlay and Nick become the top suspects when a dogged detective learns Nick had beef with Stacey too. Determined to get him off their back, Finlay, Nick, and Vero discover more than they bargained for when they launch their own investigation into Stacey’s disappearance—their quiet suburban street is a tinderbox of scandals, blackmail, and lies, and the former president of the neighborhood watch could be holding a lit match . . .
Pitted against a mountain of evidence against them—and backstabbing neighbors with plenty to hide—Finlay and Nick are in a race against the cops to solve Stacey’s case before they both go down for the crime.
