Publisher Description

Blockbuster bestselling author Christina Dodd delivers a novel in Virtue Falls that will leave readers breathlessly turning the pages in this "truly stunning work of mystery, danger, and romance" (RT Book Reviews). Twenty-three years ago, Misty Banner was brutally slashed to death in her home in Virtue Falls, Washington. Her husband was convicted of the murder. Their four year old daughter Elizabeth witnessed the crime, but has no memory of the killing. Now, two decades later, Elizabeth is back in Virtue Falls. She soon discovers her father is innocent. The real killer is still out there. And her investigation has stirred dark and deadly resentments that could provoke in another bloody murder—her own—in this riveting novel from bestselling author Christina Dodd.

“Narrator Rebecca Soler gives a steamy performance that has the main characters, Elizabeth Banner, a geologist, and her sexy ex-husband, FBI agent Garik Jacobsen, fighting their mutual attraction while searching for the person who murdered Elizabeth’s mother. Soler brings an edginess to the myriad characters—from the creepy Sheriff Foster to the Amazonian waitress, Rainbow. All are distinct and well-defined suspects. Listeners will have a fine time guessing who the killer is.”
