INHERIT THE DEAD by multiple authors ****

This novel was written by multiple writers to "raise awareness of Safe Horizon the largest victim support charity in the US."

I liked the basic storyline even tho it was a pretty simple murder mystery, not very exciting or anything. One or two of the authors would take the story to areas you get bored to death in like all the internal thinking isn't really forwarding the story. The past of the private det. hired to find a missing heiress -to-be thinks every female he encounters is stunning beyond words. He must live in a hooker village near Vegas.

I liked the writers who forwarded the story significantly and kept it up throughout the chapter. Each writer added a chapter to the novel. I believe there are 20 writers involved.

Basic story; disgraced cop/detective hired to find daughter of wealthy mom so girl can inherit her money exactly on her 21st birthday. Mom was already wealthy and would have no reason to want her dead but it seems someone does. The girl Angel no less, is hiding. The PI finds her and the story continues, don't  like the ending all that much. Too many questions ex: Angel knew about her inheritance or did she? The detective uncharacteristically wants to open a car door on a passing bike messenger which was so out of character it was puzzling.

I got it at the library-my recommendation.
