Money Side Up

Money Side Up is the seventh in the award-winning Carina Quintana Mysteries series. Money Side Up opens as Carina and a cadre of Florida law enforcement officers find themselves in a deadly firefight with an outlaw biker gang trying to complete a major drug deal. In the aftermath, Carina is faced with the striking but even more deadly Regina Roy, twin sister of the gang's local leader, who was killed in the melee.
Regina is now out of the shadow of her brother and free of his tyrannous control. Previously an enforcer for the bikers, she makes a deal that lets her take over several of the businesses formerly operated by the now-decimated gang. But, free of her brother, she is also free to release her pent-up demons and embarks on a personal quest to rid other oppressed twins of their dominating doubles. Pitted against this clever warrior woman, Carina will need more than the support of her Fort Lauderdale PD team and of her wife, Alice, as she is pushed to the limit by the daunting task of bringing Regina to justice, a task that will test her own resolve and skills as a detective.
And Regina, too, will need to stay a step ahead of the president of the multi-state biker gang, a man perhaps even more dangerous than she is. Money Side Up is a fast-paced tale whose twists and turns will thrill, and surprise, the reader, and is Carina at her best.
