Duet J P Burke

As intelligence officers from America and East Germany, Sam and Clara were supposed to be sworn enemies. They spent the Cold War lying, stealing, cheating, and killing for their masters. They also shared a passion for the piano-Clara played classical and Sam played jazz-and despite tense encounters in Miami, Vienna, and Bremen, they shared a passion for each other. Love compelled them to escape the world of espionage and retire to the quaint seaside town of Spring Harbor where they could run a bed and breakfast and practice piano in their living room. But everything changed on the day their housekeeper washed up dead upon the beach. Instinct and experience warned them plainly: it was no accident. Now Sam and Clara must call upon their shared experience and special skills to find the killer before their mutual happiness and shadowy history ends on a dark note.
