Slayer Statute (2011)
by Janet Dawson
(#12 in Jeri Howard Mystery (Short Story))


Slayer Statute
“I have to hand it to you… This one is a stinker.”

In this Shamus-nominated short story, private investigator Jeri Howard sorts out a stinker of a case.

A husband and wife are dead – looks like murder-suicide. Who gets the insurance money?

It all depends on who died first. But the law prevents a killer or a killer’s heirs from collecting on the crime.
