Single mom Maggie Chessman finds what might be a valuable Chinese porcelain bowl. When she takes it to be appraised at the local antique store, In Mint Condition, she finds a dead vendor. To her cop boyfriend’s dismay, this isn’t the first body she’s discovered, including a naked corpse in a model home and her dead sister-in-law at a local salon. But, unknown to him, this one is the corpse of a man who abused her as a child.

If the truth comes out, she might be the prime suspect in his murder. Her best friend and her therapist rally around her, discussing other suspects – the victim had a hand in a variety of crimes and sins.

As Maggie discovers, no adult is in mint condition, life takes its toll on everyone.

𝙁*𝙘𝙠 𝙔𝙤𝙪𝙧 𝙁𝙚𝙚𝙡𝙞𝙣𝙜𝙨 isn’t here to comfort you. It isn’t here to soften the edges or hold your hand through the dark.
𝑻𝒉𝒊𝒔 𝒂𝒏𝒕𝒉𝒐𝒍𝒐𝒈𝒚 𝒘𝒊𝒍𝒍 𝒅𝒓𝒂𝒈 𝒚𝒐𝒖 𝒊𝒏𝒕𝒐 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝒂𝒃𝒚𝒔𝒔.
Inside are stories where love is obsession, devotion looks a lot like destruction, and the line between desire and danger doesn’t exist.
