Russian mafia, illicit oil deals and murder: Photojournalist Sophie Medina is on the case
These are the things Sophie Medina will swear to be true about her husband, oil executive and covert CIA operative Nick: He is an honorable, trustworthy, and loyal friend; an American patriot who would die for his country; and a loving husband.
He is also - according to his MI6 handler - a murderer. They say the wife is always the last to know.
Renowned photojournalist Sophie is used to Nick keeping secrets from her. But when Nick is kidnapped from their London home, only to be spotted in Russia months later, his bosses are convinced he's turned traitor. Russian-born Nick is not the only thing that's vanished - so have top-secret papers about an oil discovery that could destabilize the market and spark war.
Sophie trusts Nick, but when she moves back to her hometown of Washington, DC, she's not so sure about his CIA colleagues. Struggling to tell friend from foe, Sophie's drawn deeper into Nick's shadowy world, where Russian mafia rub shoulders with American senators . . . and where death lurks, around every corner.
Multiple Exposure, the first mystery featuring photojournalist and female sleuth Sophie Medina, is a gripping blend of international mystery and espionage thriller.

Crosby (The Sauvignon Secret and five other wine country mysteries) introduces photojournalist Sophie Medina, in this assured tale of love, loss, and secret agendas, the first in a new series. After the disappearance of her husband, Nick Canning, an undercover agent with ties to several shadowy international agencies, Sophie returns from abroad to Washington, D.C., where she takes a job photographing an exclusive exhibit of recently discovered Fabergé eggs at the National Gallery of Art. Despite trying to keep a low profile, she’s drawn into a sinister conspiracy after a Russian diplomat accosts her and demands to know Nick’s whereabouts. The discovery of a body near the George Mason Memorial raises the stakes as Sophie realizes she’s being watched by both U.S. and foreign agents who believe Nick is not only alive but responsible for several murders.
