answers a call to investigate a call for help. I would like to thank NetGalley, Bookouture and the author Helen Phifer for my ARC in exchange for an honest review. There were a few loose ends left hanging but I'm hoping when the second book comes out in December, they will be tied up then.
I was guessing all the way to who was behind it all. I was hooked from the beginning and didn't want to put the book down. This is a fast paced, well written police procedural. This is a great start to a brand new police procedural series featuring Morgan Brookes. Morgan quickly realises this is the job she wants to do and she's determined to prove her worth. Morgan gets seconded to the Detective team to help in their investigation. The rest of the Potter family are missing.
Olivia Potter is hanging from a tree outside her home. She's called out to what looks like a suicide. Morgan has just completed her training and this was the first day she has been out on her own. With Bronte still unconscious in hospital, Morgan must act fast to solve this case and lay two families to rest, before the killer returns for the girl left alive… When Morgan returns to the scene of the crime to discover more about this forgotten case, she finds another body. Another family was murdered in this house, and the killer was never caught. Until, trawling through old files, she discovers a link to a cold case from years ago. But every clue about the murdered family leads to a dead end. As she holds Bronte’s fragile hand in hers, begging her to hold on, she vows to find out who has done this.Įvery day Morgan wakes at 4:25 AM, her old insomnia now mixed with a new fixation on the case. Lying huddled together in the dark basement, each of their faces covered with a small cotton cloth, their bodies cold to the touch.īut as Morgan kneels beside the family, she realises that one of the girls is still breathing. And when her husband and daughters cannot be traced, Morgan knows there is more to this tragedy. When the body of a woman is found hanging from a tree in her front garden, rookie Detective Morgan Brookes is first on the scene. She had to force herself to breathe as she lifted the soft white cloth covering the girl’s beautiful face… She knelt down by the side of the first girl.
