Unfortunate by Lois Greiman is the first short story in the “Chrissy McMullen” mystery series published in December 2011

Chrissy McMullen is high on novacaine when the irritating Dr. Mal drops dead beside the dental chair. Is the ex wife the culprit? Or maybe it’s his current bride, the assistent who’s carrying his child, or one of the other young beauties who seem to have been involved with the doctor sporting the store-bought tan and too many teeth. Will Chrissy get to the bottom of the mystery or will she decide this is one sensitive area she doesn’t need to dig into?

Shorted then expected but anytime I get a chance to visit with Chrissy is a fun read.
