Summary

A cold-case murder, a grisly discovery, and a viper’s nest of resentment, betrayal, and dirty secrets converge in this mystery perfect for fans of Kathy Reichs and Jayne Ann Krentz.

It’s been 12 years since Sandi Parkman went missing after being dropped off at home by her schoolmate, Nick Larson, now the Sheriff of Freeport, Michigan. When a construction crew unearths Sandi’s bones - along with Nick’s letterman jacket and one of his hairs - Nick becomes suspect number one in the murder.

Dr. Emily Hartford, the daughter of Freeport’s medical examiner, is called in to investigate, but the case is about to get personal. Nick was Emily’s high school love, and now she has to either clear his name - or contend that he’s the killer. As she delves into the case, a host of other suspects emerge: a coterie of Nick’s jock friends from high school; Sandi’s sister, Tiffani, now a dancer at a local strip club; and James VanDerMuellen, a trust funder who recently returned to Freeport.

As the autumn skies darken over Freeport and the holiday season looms, Emily must sift through more than Sandi’s brittle bones to solve the case. Can she exonerate Nick - and rekindle their long-smoldering romance? The race is on to find the truth.

Good read!

I loved the 1st book very much. This one which follows on, I found myself being frustrated with Emily due to her indecisiveness then realised that she was only like that when it came to her own life choices. Still annoying but a good story if you have to give yourself a talking to about being more understanding...🤔

Good Story

Brilliant story, keeps you gripped from beginning to end. Can't wait for the next books in the series. This would make a great TV drama.

Great follow up story

The first book left the reader hanging so I had to get this book to follow through on the story and it didn't disappoint. As per the last book, the narrator was fantastic!

Fast paced and silly at times

Another reviewer said the first one was better and that person was correct. However, the story moves fast, even if its a bit silly in places. It is more focused on female issues and is for a more mature audience than the first one. I do hope there is a follow up written.

Right up my street

Not too many clues(I don’t like to be treated as an idiot), many twists and turns, gallows humour (tick) . Complex characters. Already signing up for next book. Not giving anything away as I want all readers to get the most out of a very enjoyable murder mystery.

Struggled to be as good..

this book ran the story from the previous book without a pause. There was passages in the story that went to the Unbelievable side, and for left me cold for parts of the book. Still a good read but...

Another cracker

Cracking story, twisting and turning and taking unexpected pathways, blind bends and plausible about turns. Great performance as well.
