The Daughter — Janie Owens

If you were the parent of a twenty-five-year-old daughter, who is an unemployed perpetual student and descended upon you with her cat, what would you do? Rachel and Joe, who retired to a 50-Plus condo, must exercise tough love on their only child Angie after she leaves an ashram, searching for her purpose - again. At the insistence of Joe, Angie finds a job at a burger joint on the shores of Daytona Beach. She is dating Josh, the son of man living in the condo with connections to gambling. But fruit doesn’t fall far from the tree. After being harassed at work by a man who turns up dead, Angie suspects Josh is the murderer, and she and Rachel begin sleuthing. Amid threats from Josh’s father and being captive in a sinkhole, Angie realizes her strengths. But can they discover the truth?
