Sally Montgomery, a divorced, 52-year-old preschool teacher, goes away with her neighbor, Frederick Pierson. She returns from a walk through the glorious autumnal trees to find Frederick on the floor of the living room. When she bends to help him, she is struck from behind. She awakens to find Frederick dead, and the house on fire. She runs into the woods, manages to contact her ex-husband and begs him to help her. She has no idea who killed Pierson but she's scared.

Devon is Sally’s veterinarian daughter and when she finds out about the attempt on her mother’s life, she contacts her father, Monty Montgomery, a former New York police detective, and currently a reluctant PI, to demand to assist him. Devon manages to worm her way into the Pierson family, using their combined grief as a vehicle. What she ends up finding out is that she is drawn to the handsome Blake Pierson, but he seems to have secrets and an agenda. Did he have something to do with his uncle's murder? Or does he know who is responsible? As the suspense mounts, Devon’s ‘real’ life, that of a veterinarian intrudes into invesitigation and romance. Kane keeps the reader entertained and guessing until the very end ( )

"

New York Times bestselling author Andrea Kane's gripping new page-turner, Wrong Place, Wrong Time, bolts out of the starting gate and straight into the winner-take-all world of competitive horse show jumping, where drugs, alcohol, money, and egos collide and two strong-willed families risk everything to protect the ones they love.

Sometimes bad things happen to good people . . . especially when they're in the wrong place at the wrong time.

What begins as a romantic weekend in a cozy cabin turns into a deadly nightmare when Sally Montgomery's companion, Frederick Pierson, is murdered. But instead of regarding Sally as a victim, the police are after her as their prime suspect.

To evade the authorities and a brutal killer, Sally goes into hiding, relying on her wits and basic survival skills to stay alive. Desperate, she calls Pete Montgomery, her ex-husband and former NYPD detective turned private investigator, for help. With Sally's life on the line, Monty recruits their daughter, Devon, to work on the case with him.

Devon has her father's cop instincts. As she probes deeper into the murder, the investigation brings her closer to uncovering a dangerous Pierson family secret -- one that could destroy the family empire and its heir apparent, Blake Pierson. Though powerfully attracted to Blake, Devon isn't sure if he's friend or foe. She does know that he'll do anything to protect his family. With Devon's heart and Olympic show-jumping gold at stake, how far will his family loyalty extend?

Time is running out. Danger is closing in. Can Devon prove Sally's innocence before she becomes the killer's next victim?
