A town bursting with secrets. One last chance to find my mother's killer. . .
Thirty years ago, my mother was found murdered. I remember holding my teddy bear close, listening as the police told my father they couldn't find her killer. She was only two miles from home when she was brutally attacked and left for dead in her car by the forest-lined highway. They said they interviewed everyone in our small town, but no one saw a thing. . .
Every year, on the anniversary of her death, I dive back into the case, hoping to uncover something new. But this year, I receive a note that turns my blood to ice:
Stop asking questions while you still can. Don't make the same mistake as your mother.
I think back to my mother's last moments. She was a journalist, and before she died, she bravely uncovered terrible accusations of abuse. My hands shake, but now I know I must dig deeper. This threat confirms someone killed her to keep their secrets safe.
But when I find my first lead, a young woman who comes to my workplace, wild-eyed, demanding to speak with me, the police arrive and force her out. Does she know something about what happened in the fog the night my mother was killed? Are the police silencing her too? Are they protecting someone?
People can only keep their secrets for so long, and this town has spent the last thirty years hiding in the shadows. I must bring the truth to light. Even if everyone threatens me. Even if it costs me my life. . .
A heart-pounding, brilliantly twisty crime thriller that will keep you on the edge of your seat. Perfect for fans of Lisa Regan, Robert Dugoni and Kendra Elliot.
