Taking the Fifth / J. A. Jance / 363 pages

Detective J. P. Beaumont must solve a double murder.  Although the first death obviously is, and the second is declared so, Beaumont has his suspicions and orders drug testing done on the corpse.  The second man did not die of aids as supoosed.  He, too, was murdered.  A hot singing sensation on a come-back tour after rehabilitation for drug use is accused of the crimes.  Eye witnesses have placed her at both crime scenes.  Is she guilty as charged?  This was an enjoyable read, but a bit too predictable.
