Lieutenant Trant 03 Death and the Maiden (as by Q. Patrick)
Lee Loverling knew her roommate, Grace, had become somewhat of an enigma. After her father’s suicide and her family’s failed fortunes, Grace had changed into a willful woman whose romantic dalliances bordered on reckless—and whose moods had become almost sinister. But Lee could not have known just how far Grace had fallen until, after a night of fun in New York City, she’s found dead in a river, apparently the victim of murder. All of Wentworth College is abuzz with the tragedy, and Lee is suddenly at the center of an investigation led by the intrepid Lieutenant Trant of the New York Homicide Squad that threatens to expose a great many people—both students and faculty—to the scandals Grace left in her wake. Working together, Lieutenant Trant and Lee must unravel the tangled web of Grace’s life to uncover the truth behind the young woman’s death.
Lieutenant Trant 04 Return to the Scene aka Death in Bermuda (as by Q. Patrick)
Kay Winyard’s return to the scene was a pilgrimage of hate. She went back to Bermuda, back to the scene of her own past indiscretions in order to keep history from repeating itself.
Kay returned to the scene to stop a wedding. It was stopped – by murder.
Against the glamorous and exotic setting of Bermuda unfolds the story of a family shaken by murder, banded together in hatred of the victim, banded together against the law. Not even to each other dare they admit their suspicions – their almost certain knowledge that the murderer is one of themselves.
Valiantly they lie about the torn, bloodstained dress that one of them has deliberately destroyed, about the silver bathing cap clutched in the dead man’s hand, about the weird tracks on the swimming beach and the water-stained leather cushion.
And then, crashing through their flimsy structure of lies, comes the second murder—cold-blooded, daring, vicious. They know then that they must tell the truth, that none of them is safe until the murderer is found.
Return to the Scene has all the mounting suspense of unknown danger, all the drama of normal lives destroyed by murder, all the excitement of the chase. But even more, Return to the Chase is that rare achievement, a perfect puzzle that will keep the reader guessing until the last page.

With the knowledge that Angelica is the chief object of Lt. Trant’s deadly quiet investigation, he knows that he must destroy his own life with Betsy- to save Angelica’s- and finds that his own conscience is the most demanding obligation of all. Svelte.
