The Executive Murder - Paul Austin Ardoin

A dead billionaire. A compromised police force. And her daughter in the crosshairs.

Disgraced federal investigator Bernadette Becker is taking a well-deserved vacation at a music festival-when a mysterious man in the crowd gives her a clue that upends her life.

Soon, Bernadette is sending her family into protective custody while she an her partner, forensic toxicologist Dr. Kep Woodhead, figure out who killed a billionaire in his home. The local police are on the take, and they don't know who to trust. Uncovering clues and dodging gunfire, Woodhead and Becker cross the country chasing the killer-who is now targeting Bernadette's daughter.
