Emily Jenkins's husband, Kenton, expects her to be at his beck and call every minute of the day, and she is getting tired of this life, but would she resort to murder?

Carol Butler is married to Emily's cousin, Damon. She thinks Damon is cheating on her with a woman he and Kenton helped move from Knoxville to Nashville. Damon swears the woman is gay, but Carol is not convinced. How far will she go to learn the truth?

Detectives Janice Carter and Harold Jones are called to a scene at the Jenkins' home in the Brentwood neighborhood of Nashville, Tennessee. Kenton Jenkins is found dead in his pool. It could have been an accident, but their instincts tell them it was murder.

There are no obvious clues, and the only two people who could be suspects have airtight alibis.  At the same time, other people could be responsible, who had a motive, and how will it be proven with no evidence to tie them to the scene?

Kenton Jenkins had secrets that no one suspected. Were those secrets enough to get him murdered?

Treacherous Secrets

Sonja brought a carafe of coffee out, set it on the coffee table, and then sat down next to Emily, Mario, and Fernando. Detectives Janice Carter and Harold Jones were sitting on the other couch facing them. Carol sat in a chair between the two couches. 


"Okay," Emily let out a sigh. "I'm ready to hear what really happened to Kenton." 


Janice began to explain. "Cecelia Chase and her father are scam artists. She has been married a number of times with different aliases, all to sons of wealthy families who were gay and tried to keep the families from finding out. She would milk the son for as much money as she could get out of him and then expose him to the family, get a divorce and a nice settlement to keep it out of the news. She and her father put together the whole super religious scheme to draw in the Chases.”
