GETTING MINE
NY: Saint Martin's Press 1991. 1st ed. Fine in dust jacket. The second Martha 'Moz' Brandt title. "California claims-investigator Moz Brant now wonders whether a reported traffic accident is really a scam: one passenger is conveniently missing; another uses a back-brace only when someone's watching; and two others including a doctor are clearly colluding in their lies. Then LaDonna Treece sans back-brace suspiciously OD's; Paulette the bookkeeper at her doctor's office suddenly disappears with several computer disks; and Moz is almost killed when a cowboy-hatted thug forces her off the road. What began as a simple accident claim then becomes a matter of murder--undertaken to protect an insurance rip-off partnership as well as to subsidize a porno-art collection." Kirkus. First Edition.
