Description

"Murder at the Top of the Stairs: A Caleigh O'Neill Story," by Wendy R Williams is the first book in the Caleigh O'Neill series. It tells the story of a four-car-pileup between the insulated worlds of New York society, Texas royalty, a Bulgarian crime family, and various law enforcement agencies with differing levels of competency. When "things" become too heated in the bathroom of a downtown nightclub, Caleigh O'Neill, flees the club with no cabs in sight. She grabs a Citibike and rides up First Avenue on the way to her Upper Eastside apartment. Pedaling past the UN, she stops to take a moonlit photo of two men standing at the top of the stairs leading to Ralph Bunche Park, when she sees one man stab the other, and a body falls over the railing, through the trees, and into the park. Unfortunately for Caleigh, the body that fell into the park belonged to the son of the United Kingdom's Permanent Representative to the United Nations, and the murderer is the son of the head of a Bulgarian crime family, and she is now the "witness," and beamed into a world where being an innocent bystander is not an option.

In Book Two of the series, Caleigh is in Barcelona, Spain, in a world of minor Spanish royalty, sex clubs, and human trafficking (as advertised in the travel brochures). Book Two - "Murder in Mallorca" - was published on Amazon in February of 2021.

Book three of the series, "Murder in the Leeward Islands," was published in the Summer of 2021.

Book four of the series, "Murder in Windsor," will be published in February of 2022.
