Copy Kat (Kat Colorado Mysteries) - Tapa blanda

While investigating a death in a California gold-country resort town, Sacramento P.I. Kat Colorado learns that the victim was not all that she had appeared to be and that a killer may still be on the loose. Reprint.

She's a hard-boiled Sacramento P.I. with a soft  spot for the unlucky, the unloved, and one special  cop named Hank. Her name is Kat Colorado, and in  her business curiosity can be more than an  occupational hazard -- it can be  murder.  

It's hard to tell where the truth ends and the  lies begin when Kat is hired to look into the death  of a young woman in a historic California  gold-country resort town. The police have closed the books  on Deidre Durkin's murder; it was a tragic  robbery-homicide. But could a clever murderer have  created the illusion of a parking-lot theft gone bad?  Was Deidre's loving husband as perfect as he  seemed? The more Kat finds out about the victim, the  less she's convinced that Deidre was the woman she  appeared to be. But then Kat, in her undercover  role as a bartender, isn't the person she pretends  to be, either. And as Kat discovers, in this  little town, even life and death are an illusion.
