What the Reviewers Say

“A story with a drug-addicted heiress, family feuds, cover-ups, and characters whose loyalties and motives are suspect. I enjoyed the authentic tension and disfunction in the family as the protagonist tries to discover who killed the dead heiress–and why the police seem uninterested in investigating her death.”
–GLJ

“J. M. Zambrano’s second novel “Pool of Lies” will surprise and delight her fans as well as her new readers. J. M. Zambrano has crafted yet another intriguing tale, one that definitively captures the reader’s interest with thoroughly constructed characters and rather complicated plot. The two novels are different in structure and execution; the only similarity between “Pool of Lies” and “The Trophy Hunter” lies in the engaging, intelligent writing, pulling the readers in with eloquent prose and superb storytelling and keeping them hooked from beginning to end. An end that is unexpected but satisfying as the only logical resolution of the story. “

About the Author

I’m proud to be an indie author with an attitude. Born in Los Angeles, CA, I’ve worn many hats: author, screenwriter, single parent, deputy sheriff, forensic accountant, CPA, Arabian horse breeder, and caregiver to my mom in her final years. And now in Colorado, I’m once again giving authorship my best shot.

Pool of Lies

 

Rae Esposito, widowed forensic accountant, sets out to help Deidre’s husband settle his wife’s estate and discovers that Deidre was murdered. Bent on getting justice for Deidre, Rae enlists the help of her dead husband’s partner, Detective Veronica Sanchez, but a dirty cop and a drug dealing snitch muddy the waters.

On the periphery, a man and a woman conduct a private quest for justice. Deidre was their lovechild. And in spite of the intervening years, their secret love still lives.

As Rae unravels the lies that bind those connected with Deidre’s case, she faces truths that set asunder everything she thought she knew about her marriage and her husband’s death. When the final deception surfaces, it could cost Rae her life.
