DESCRIPTION:

Never bet against a red deuce.

One fiery redhead in the family can be a caution. When the redhead comes in a pair it means double trouble for anyone who bets against them.

Mandy Doucette is a by-the-book corporate lawyer whose work includes vetting acquisitions. Her twin sister, Reggie, is an FBI pathologist. Both are happy in their respective comfort zones.

But things are about to change. Mandy senses something is wrong with a proposed acquisition. She spots a mystery behind why a major corporation made a whistleblower's complaint disappear-along with the whistleblower.

Soon Mandy's risking her life to stop moles from stealing American defense technology and figure out who is trying to frame, then kill her. At the same time, Reggie is investigating corpses dug up in cornfields and forests. Could they be the key to what Mandy is investigating?

If these sisters can stay out of the assassin's crosshairs, they might just bring down your international conspiracy.
