When it comes to murder, even brilliant scientists aren't immune…The night Harold Munson is shot dead in his car, the primary suspect is the man's brainiac wife. But Charlotte, who has a passion for science and sex with strangers, swears all she wants is a Nobel Prize for curing brain cancer, even if that requires fudging her research and a few dead patients along the way.When the next body drops, all signs point to Charlotte, but Detective Sam Lagarde doggedly follows the clues until he has his own Eureka moment.

No matter how well you plan, you never know when something or someone may turn your life in a new direction-or even completely upside down. Whether it's the physics of fate or simply bad timing, every action produces a reaction-and no one can escape destiny.This collection of short stories explores these twists of fate against different backdrops-in real and imagined worlds, in the past, present, and future. In What Goes Around, three generations of a West Virginia family survive domestic abuse, coping in surprisingly disparate ways. "Year of the Vampires" describes a group of friends battling outsiders wreaking havoc on their island. In "Learning by Heart," a family confronts their youngest son's addiction. Covering terrorism, grief, and murder, these stories reveal that sometimes, well after hope is gone, life rewards you for simply surviving.What Goes Around examines the wheels of destiny as they turn, bringing rewards and punishments to those who must face their demons.
