Publisher's Synopsis
Did Simon Langford abuse his son and kill his wife? Paula Mitchell, a Rhode Island private investigator, is hired to prove he's an innocent man. When Simon refuses to answer Paula's questions, she interviews his friends and acquaintances. Trouble is, they're almost as secretive as Simon, and she's sure some are lying. When Simon is arrested for his wife's murder, Paula knows she needs to work fast, or Simon will go to prison, probably for life. And might never see his little boy again. After old flame Steve comes back to town, Paula is excited about the rekindling of their romance. Events turn dangerous, though, and Steve's need to protect Paula might get in the way of her solving the case. Paula's frustration escalates until the day she discovers some answers from an unexpected source that provide a surprising breakthrough. But when she acts on the information, she puts her own life in danger. Third novel in the Paula Mitchell, PI, series.
