What if the paramedics at your door weren't there to save your life-but to end it?It's a sunny summer afternoon in Sacramento when an ambulance pulls up to the State Capitol. The call? A possible cardiac episode inside the tax department. Two paramedics rush in, calm, professional, and concerned. Minutes later, a respected employee lies dead in his office-an apparent heart attack caused by a faulty pacemaker.Or so it seems.Dr. Jill Quint, forensic pathologist and part-time vintner, is called in by the victim's family for a second opinion. The man was fit, full of plans, and had just bought new hiking boots for an upcoming trip to Yosemite. Something doesn't add up-and Jill's instincts are rarely wrong.When her autopsy reveals evidence of foul play, Jill teams up with local authorities to track down a killer who may be masquerading as a first responder. With a long list of people who dislike paying taxes and rumors of similar deaths across the state, Jill must follow the evidence before another life is lost.A TAXING DEATH is book five in the Jill Quint, MD series-a cozy forensic mystery where science meets motive.
