Dead on Arrival — Jackie Griffey

When her husband dies in a motorcycle accident, Maggie Murphy not only has to deal with his sudden loss, she's got to find a job. The latter proves easier when her cousin gets her a stint at the local newspaper, covering for a missing advice columnist. The job becomes permanent when Maggie finds the longtime reporter dead in a trash heap, a Star of David etched on his forehead.

As if life wasn't weird enough, she knows in her gut that her husband's death wasn't accidental. Proving it is another matter entirely. Luckily, a patrolman arrives on the scene, offering comfort in ways that both ease a lonely widow and combat the menace stalking her life. Yet strange phone calls and a bomb explosion put Maggie in growing danger...with only a ghost of a chance to get out alive.
