Nasty Nevin is the bizarre second book in the Mickey Stanislawsky Mystery series presenting more unsettling crimes & characters.

Murders in Peaceton, Texas have a habit of happening around important events in Detective Mickey Stanislawsky's life. This time, it's as she's heading out to celebrate her birthday with her friends and coworkers.

At the same time, a new parolee risks her freedom to nurture a vendetta against anyone named Stanislawsky. Allies unknown to Mickey try to stop the trouble heading her way, but the parolee is determined.

While Mickey works her case, two more women are found dead, and they appear to have a connection to the first victim. She's all but solving this alone, as her partner, Detective Daniel Ladenster, is increasingly scarce. He's got secrets of his own, secrets that force Mickey to defend them both from certain death.
