A young girl in danger can justice be done before it’s too late?
Susan Lentig’s daughter Amy was murdered twenty years ago and now, at long last, the small- town waitress sets out on a road trip to witness the killer’s execution.
But on her journey she discovers shocking new evidence that leads to her suspect the condemned man is innocent and the real killer is still free. Even worse, her prime suspect has a young daughter who’s at terrible risk. With no money and no time to spare, Susan sets out to uncover the truth about Amy’s murder before an innocent man pays the price and another little girl is killed.
With the help of two unlikely allies a cynical, defiant teenage girl and the retired cop who made the original arrest Susan battles the FBI to put the real killer behind bars. Will she win justice for the condemned man and his daughter at last?
EXTRACT FROM PAGE 7 CHAPTER ONE
Sunday, April 7, Twenty Years Ago
“Which do you like better?” Amy asked. “The purple dolphin or the pink duck?”
“Here’s the fun part, said Susan, ruffling her daughter’s silky hair. “We can get both.”
EXRACT FROM PAGE 14
Susan had lost not only her daughter but her husband, her soul mate, the only man she had ever loved. Sometimes Parson Parsons talked to her about forgiveness. But she didn’t give a fuck about forgiveness. Maybe if the Monster she never called him by his real name, she wouldn’t give him that dignity ever actually asked for forgiveness, if he ever quit lying and claiming he didn’t kill Amy, then maybe she might feel a little something towards him besides pure red-hot rage.
