The third in the new detective series that started with Wages of Sin and Day of Atonement (both Strebor, 2014, available from Turnaround), this thrilling page-turner explores what happens when homicide detective Troy Evans is framed for the murder of his ex - and the secrets that got him there. When Troy’s ex mysteriously disappears, he is convinced that she staged her disappearance to get back at him for his rejection, and his assessment seems plausible - until her body is discovered. Soon, Troy becomes the prime suspect in the murder investigation.
