SUICIDAL SUSPICIONS, A Kate Huntington Mystery, #8

 

Psychotherapist Kate Huntington is rocked to the core when she receives news that one of her favorite clients has committed suicide. How can this be? The woman, who suffered from bipolar disorder, had been swinging toward a manic state the last time Kate had heard from her.

The client’s family blames Kate and they are making noises about suing for malpractice. She can’t fault them since she blames herself. How could she have missed the signs?

Searching for answers for both herself and the grieving parents, Kate stumbles on some pieces of information that don’t quite fit. Is it possible the client didn’t commit suicide after all? Or is that just wishful thinking on Kate’s part? Questioning her professional judgement, and at times her own sanity, she feels compelled to continue to investigate.

When she senses that someone is following her, she wonders if she is really losing it. Or is she getting too close to someone’s secrets?

Meanwhile, Kate’s PI husband is worried as well, about both her mental state and her physical safety. He quietly launches his own investigation. But he’s not sure what he hopes to find–proof that his wife is an incompetent therapist... or evidence that might provoke a killer to strike again.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR

Kassandra Lamb has never been able to decide which she loves more, psychology or writing. In college, she realized that writers need a day job in order to eat, so she studied psychology. After a career as a psychotherapist and college professor, she is now retired and can pursue her passion for writing.

She spends most of her time in an alternate universe with her characters. The portal to this universe, aka her computer, is located in Florida, where her husband and dog catch occasional glimpses of her. She and her husband spend part of each summer in her native Maryland, where the Kate Huntington series is based.

Kass has completed seven books in the series, plus two Kate on Vacation novellas (somewhat lighter reads along the lines of cozy mysteries). She is currently working on Book 8,
Suicidal Suspicions
, plus the next vacation novella.
