Jake Harmony's back! In To Die For, the vain, short, balding, overweight, smart, and funny Nassau County Homicide Detective of Who Killed Mona, is faced with another murder mystery. This time involving his stepfather, Henry Slater. Although their relationship has always been hostile, when Henry is arrested for murder, Jake is determined to prove him innocent.
The deck is stacked against him. The victim, Billy Kingsley, was found in the front seat of his Rolls Royce, his throat slashed, with Henry seated beside him, covered in blood. The police are sure they have an open and shut case when they discover that Henry insured Kingsley's life for five million dollars and was often heard threatening to kill him.
Jake Harmony is the one guy on the Force who will prove them wrong.
