About The Book
“Death in Disparate Families” tells two parallel Alexandria, Virginia, police stories. In one case, the body of an ex-husband of two sisters is found in a cemetery. He is identified, and it is discovered that he has recently returned to Alexandria and, seeking money, has threatened the tranquility and integrity of the lives of the now 60-year-old sisters.
The son of one of the sisters and two friends of the sisters’ mother, living in a senior living facility, become the prime suspects. In the other case, a crippled and dying man, unable to live an everyday life, buys a Mexican woman who has been sex-trafficked to Virginia and imprisons her in his basement, where he can view her and play out his fantasies that she is either his wife or daughter. His game falls apart when a nosy reporter stumbles upon his scheme, is captured, and then is rescued by an inquisitive police acquaintance.
