Books with title Murder at the Grill

New York Times Bestseller: The death of a special agent raises suspicions of corruption in this mystery in the “dazzling series” (The Atlanta Journal-Constitution). If there’s one organization you don’t want to mess with, it’s the FBI. But agents Ross Lizenby and Christine Saksis are about to rush headlong into a showdown with their own employer . . . Special Agent George L. Pritchard was murdered on the FBI’s own shooting range, his body found hanging behind a target during a public tour of the facility. Because of the embarrassment, the FBI had to launch an investigation—but when Lizenby and Saksis are brought in on the case, they begin to suspect that the agency’s heart is not really in it. Now they must navigate the roadblocks that keep getting thrown in their way, and determine whether their ultimate loyalty is to the agency, or to the truth . . . “Truman has settled firmly into a career of writing murder mysteries, all evoking brilliantly the Washington she knows so well.” —The Houston Post

Veronica Whittier gets out of the car and sees a church with stained glass windows and a steeple --- not a house. Is this where she is supposed to live? Her parents have bought this one hundred-year-old building, recently converted into restaurant, on a peninsula sticking out into the Pacific Ocean. But that is not all that is strange about it. Just across the bay is a tall, black mountain. Is that smoke or are those clouds that Veronica sees hanging over it? The previous owner claims that the volcano is dormant and has not erupted in “human memory.” Veronica is not so sure. Then there is the unkempt, dark-haired dude with patches on his clothing who seems to have come with the restaurant --- Clifford. He is mean to Veronica from the beginning. He keeps on telling her that he wishes that she would go home even as he sweeps floors and does garden work for her parents. When he runs into her investigating noises at night, he rudely shoves her back into her room and even locks the door. He tells her to mind her own business. Veronica meets the other islanders, a gang of kids her own age, who live on the rocky promontory that juts out into the sea where the volcano is located. They don’t want her to have to stay locked up all day at the Sanctuary Grill with Clifford. But it is when they take her out on the town and decide to show Veronica a good time, that the plot reaches its “explosive” climax. The volcano has a few things to say about it, too.
