Under the Ashes: Murder and Morels

In this fifth installment of the Burr Lafayette Mystery series, a Michigan attorney's fight against his client's stingy insurance company suddenly turns into a murder case.

Molly Fagan is merely looking for a quick life insurance payout after her radio-station-owner husband suffered a heart attack and died. But just when Burr Lafayette gets his client a shot at the money, Molly is arrested for murder.

Once again, the hard-drinking, courtroom-quipping lawyer finds himself in the thick of a homicide investigation, the outcome of which depends as much on his courtroom expertise as the answer to this question: Who put the poison mushrooms in the soup?
