But they have something way bigger to worry about than family squabbles, especiallyChloe. She''s terrified that the sweater she left at the scene of a crime - a crime she didn''t commit - will make it look like she''s guilty.What will happen when Levesque - a homicide cop who is dating the girls'' mother - gives Chloe the third degree? First published more than a decade ago as The Stepfather Game, this is the novel that introduced readers to Chloe Yan and told how she first met Levesque.

The latest book in the Chloe and Levesque series, with the dramatic new series look. Chloe has a kind of grudging respect for David Mitchell, even though he appears to have a spring-loaded temper, so when he''s charged with the murder of Trevor Blake, she can''t decide whether he''s guilty or not. Mitchell is definitely the likeliest suspect - he fought with Blake on the main street of East Hastings just before the murder - but then some of the clues at the scene of the crime just don''t add up. Not a Trace will include a sneak peak at the new Robyn Hunter series, coming from Norah McClintock in 2006!
