Publisher's Synopsis
5-STAR RATING FROM READERS' FAVORITE"The plot is masterful, packed full of action, twists, and turns that you just don't see coming." Readers' Favorite, 2016
Cold cases are cold for a reason. And PI Dezeray Jackson hates working them. She has, ever since the murder of her sister. But when the unsolved case of a 13-year-old girl falls into Dez's lap, she can't walk away.
Criminal justice student, Tamara Steele, asks Dez to check into the case. The only thing Dez knows is that the girl stormed from her house, never seen again, until her friends stumbled over her body. With all the leads dried up, and no witnesses, Dez must find a fresh place to start.
The girl's stepfather seems to be a likely candidate. The two argued the night the girl disappeared, but the police couldn't link him to her death. Each of her friends hasn't strayed far from home, so Dez prioritizes interviewing them. When they give different details that don't quite match up with the events surrounding the girl's death, can Dez chalk it up to faded memories of pre-teen adolescence? And what about the sex offender from the initial investigation? Where is he, now?
As details unfold, and secrets unravel, Dez gets closer to discovering the truth. But when she identifies the killer, can she prevent another person's death?
If you like a pull-no-punches sleuth and a masterful, captivating plot with lots of twists and turns, then you'll love author Kori D. Miller's compelling book.
Readers who like Janet Evanovich, Marcia Muller, or Sue Grafton will enjoy getting to know this hot new private investigator from the Midwest. She's got a penchant for weapons, good-looking men, and a great game of pool. And only one of these helps her solve cases.
