Blow Up

International photojournalist Sophie Medina usually works in war zones and natural disaster sites, but when a high-flying friend offers her a commission photographing his country house, she reluctantly accepts. It''s a mistake. Former Secretary of State Quill''s been keeping secrets. Secrets that are about to blow up in Sophie''s face ...

Photojournalist Sophie Medina must figure out how the death of a Supreme Court justice and the murder of a homeless man are related before she becomes an assailant''s next target.

International photojournalist Sophie Medina and her old school friend Father Jack O''Hara are out for a run on Capitol Hill when they find the body of Associate Supreme Court Justice Everett Townsend lying in an alley, barely alive. Townsend, a diabetic, later dies in the ER from complications due to hypoglycemia.

His tragic death has unexpected repercussions for Sophie when Javi, a young homeless man of Sophie''s acquaintance, is murdered. Before he died, Javi told her a shocking story about Townsend that could have a devastating impact on the nation''s highest court - and on the American justice system - if word got out.

Unable to persuade anyone that what she learned is true and on the run from whoever is protecting Townsend''s dark secret, Sophie searches a collection of her photographs of Washington D.C.''s homeless community, looking for evidence before everything blows up in her face . . .

The third Sophie Medina mystery, following Ghost Image and Multiple Exposure, is a great choice for readers who enjoy fearless female sleuths, well-plotted puzzles and gripping political intrigue.
