Synopsis
Harriet Dale is an insurance claims investigator and a talented, but out of work, actress. While untangling a stolen artwork claim, she discovers The Frightened Lady, the portrait of a 200 year-old unsolved murder. The portrait carries a curse—anyone who moves it, dies. In investigating the painting, she soon becomes entangled with Axe Winston, a lethally attractive man who spells danger. And for a moment, Harriet forgets the good advice given her by DI Brice MacDonald, with dire consequences.

Review
"This offbeat series combines meaty plots with plenty of zany goings-on, in the manner of Janet Evanovich, and it is steadily gaining fans among those who like a comic edge to their crime." —Booklist on Turn and Die
"Virtue triumphs satisfyingly in Jordan's ninth." —Kirkus Reviews on Fold and Die
