-->--'''Aggie Blake's essential catch phrase.'''

Agatha 'Aggie' Blake is an LAPD Homicide Detective. Katherine 'Katie' Lane is a teenage foster child. TheyFightCrime.

Aggie, a 27-year-old detective, and her interns, Dexter Smalls and Lenny Little, are investigating the murder of a hotel lounge singer. They soon meet Katie Lane, the teenage daughter of the victim, who had been placed into foster care years before. ForTheEvulz, Smalls and Little arrange for Katie to live with Aggie, an arrangement that both girls despise. With the help of friends CJ (the chief medical examiner), Lexy (the forensic entomologist), and Ace (the forensic toxocologist, and Aggie's love interest), they must catch the killer.

* ADayInTheLimeLight: The third book in the series centers around Smalls and Little, who are forced to solve a crime alone when Aggie and Katie are bedridden with the flu.
* CreepyChild: Katie is a very mild example of this. Salem, the little girl that the LAPD harbors after her family is murdered, is a much straighter example. [[spoiler: Salem's also the one who killed her family.]]

** TheLancer: CJ
** TheBigGuy: Smalls and Ace

* INeedAFreakingDrink: Aggie's being humiliated by her interns in front of her boyfriend. She turns to vodka.

* IfYouEverDoAnythingToHurtHer: Little and Smalls give this spiel to Aggie's boyfriend over a game of pool.
** Little and Smalls do this yet again when Katie has a study date with a guy from school.

* LittleMissSnarker: Katie
* MeaningfulName: Katie breaks Salem's down for us.
--> "Her name is Salem. Salem had witches. What rhymes with witches? What is she? This is logical proof that that little girl is a [[CurseCutShort bi--]]"
* MurderTheHypotenuse: [[spoiler: The adoptive father of one of the victims killed the woman his daughter's lover was seeing in hopes that the man she was seeing would keep seeing his daughter. When that failed, he planned to kill the man, but accidentally confronted his daughter instead.]]
* MyBelovedSmother: Aggie's mother smothers both Aggie and Katie, much to their dismay.
