Book excerpt: The Jefe's Curse is a murder mystery that presents readers with a compelling narrative. The chief of a prominent corporation was found murdered in his office. When the investigation team arrived, the cold body of Jack Robinson was discovered on the floor, and there were no bloodstains. The firm's staff was promptly assembled in the main hall of the multimillion-dollar company. However, during the process, five people got stuck in an elevator. This included the boss's daughter, whom the boss was unaware was employed in his company; his beloved son, a possible successor of the corporation; his favorite sister, who has been his right-hand since the company's meteoric rise and also a potential successor of the corporation; Jack's long-employed secretary; and a policeman responsible for transporting the company's personnel down the stairs. Which of them is most to blame?
