"Maximum Pressure: A Claudia Rose Novel (Claudia Rose Forensic Handwriting Mysteries Book 9)"

Old friendships turn deadly and the past comes back to haunt Claudia Rose in unexpected ways.

Claudia never intended to confront her past at her 25-year high school class reunion in Edentown, California. However, the reunion takes a chilling turn when she stumbles upon a drowning victim in the high school swimming pool—someone she knew. Was it a tragic accident or something more sinister?

With the help of her LAPD homicide detective husband, Joel Jovanic, Claudia delves into the investigation and uncovers a web of secrets and lies that have been buried for decades. Haunted by the memory of Lucy Valentine, a young classmate who vanished without a trace while they were juniors in high school, she joins forces with Matt, an old flame who is producing a documentary on the girl's mysterious disappearance.

When a cryptic note signed "Lucy" is found, Claudia's expertise as a forensic handwriting examiner is needed to dig deeper into what happened to Lucy Valentine. Was she kidnapped? Did she run away? Kill herself? As Claudia and Matt begin to collaborate on his documentary project, shocking revelations surface about the classmates they thought they knew.

Getting closer to the truth, Claudia discovers that two crimes are intimately connected—and that someone is willing to do anything to keep their secrets buried.

In this gripping mystery, Claudia Rose finds herself on a twisty path, where friends come under suspicion and dangerous long-buried secrets resurface.
