Jane Ryland is a newspaper reporter. Jane has been working with her producer Fiola on a story about what has been happening on college campuses. Women have reported being raped at school and the administration doesn't seem to be doing anything about it. The women are told to say nothing. Of course they don't want the reputation of the school to be damaged.
Jake is a detective. Jake and his partner DeLuca are working a murder investigation. A young teacher Avery has been found dead in her pool. With the only witness being a dog, they really have to do some digging to get to the bottom of this.
Jane and Jake are engaged. They have to keep it a secret as it doesn't really look good for a cop and reporter to be together. Both have promised each other that they would not question what they were working on. However, it seems that both of these crimes are related.
Both are interviewing the same people. Jane receives a phone call from a young woman, who wants to tell her story. Since she was attached, she has not been able to leave her apartment. Jane and Fiola meet with her and find out that she knows more about both crimes. They convince her to tell her story.
As more and more evidence comes forward, Jane and Jake find that there are way too many twist and turns to both of these crimes.
What a great story by Hank Phillippi Ryan. I enjoyed the way that she had a little romance mixed in with a mystery. Never would have guessed the ending of this story. There are many different story lines, but they all come together. She also showed how doing the two jobs could get in the way of a relationship. Both had to keep secrets from each other.
If you enjoy a good murder mystery this is the book for you. Hoping more Jane Ryland novels will follow.
