Hush Hush opening lines: Someone tries to kill me at least once a day. I usually see it coming. By definition, people in prison aren’t the smartest creatures in the criminal kingdom.
My blurb:
Harriet Blue is where she deserves to be, in prison. As a police detective she knew when she went rogue, this is where she would end up. But now she has been offered a deal of a lifetime. Find someone alive and she can get her freedom. But if they end up dead, then her fate is sealed. Harriet takes the deal, but only because she has her own case to work. And she needs to be on the outside to do that.

This sounds exciting, Tandy. I can imagine that prison is a particularly bad place for an ex-cop.
I imagine so!
