Suspense | Mystery Woman Sleuth
For fans of Patricia Cornwell, Tana French, and Lisa Gardner comes a razor-sharp novel of suspense featuring Detective Nan Viningโa single mother whose worlds collide when her teenage daughter stumbles upon a grisly double homicide. When she gets the call, Nan Vining responds as a mother first and a detective second. Her daughter, Emily, has made a gruesome discovery in a secluded section of a Pasadena park: a pretty, popular young teacher from Emilyโs high school and a bright yet troubled transfer studentโboth dead and bloody in a copse of trees. But the crime scene isnโt the only thing that seems off to Detective Vining. Thereโs also the cocky classmate who was with Emily in the parkโthe boyfriend she never knew about. What else doesnโt she know about her daughter? As she attempts to channel both her maternal and investigative instincts into one single point of focus, Viningโs superiors at the Pasadena Police Department are moving at lightning speed. Before the evidence has even been processed, the case is closed as a clear-cut murder/suicide: a disturbed teenager murders his teacher, then takes his own life. Vining doesnโt buy it. Now sheโs chasing dangerous, powerful people with secrets they would kill forโand taking them down means risking her own flesh and blood.
