Bite the Moon (Five Star Mystery Series) (Five Star Mystery Series) (Five Star First Edition Mystery)

Fanning, known for true crime, launches a new series starring Molly Mullet, a chemistry teacher turned cop. Country-music sensation Trenton Wolfe is headlining at Solms Hall, a storied Texas concert hall. When Molly, moonlighting in security, hears a scream above the music, she traces the noise to the dead body of Rodney Faver, band manager. Implicated for the crime is Bobby Wiggins, the Solms Hall janitor. Molly can't believe that Bobby, a childhood friend who's mildly disabled, could possibly have done the deed, let alone confess to it. Still not buying it, Molly quits the force and aligns with Bobby's defense attorney. Though she makes no friends during her investigation, she does attract the attention of a couple of suitors, but are they to be trusted? Fanning's experience with true crime results in believable investigative technique, but the conclusion doesn't quite resolve all the loose ends.
