Resumen del Editor

A young girl, Kasey, is murdered in the woods of northern New York, a strange symbol carved into her stomach.

Investigator Reed Raleigh, Major Crimes, is tasked with finding the killer.

Reed has his own troubles. He’s in therapy, divorced, and estranged from his son. But he desperately needs to solve this case—his own stepdaughter vanished when she was a teenager, and Reed knows all about the agony of having no closure. There's no way he's letting Kasey’s mother go through that.

But as Reed begins to dig, the case grows ever more complex. Why is Kasey’s boyfriend acting so strangely? And why is her mother lying to the police?

As evidence of Kasey’s bizarre secret life starts to emerge, Reed realizes this case isn’t just about a dead girl. There’s something much bigger at play in this small rural town: a decades-old secret that needs to be protected—at any cost.

Great story

Enjoyed the narrative, it brought the story alive and made it real. Unusual story line but interesting

This Author is Worth Giving a Try!

I thoroughly enjoyed this book by T. J. Brearton. This is a small town mystery that takes place in upstate NY outside of the Albany area. A teenage girl’s body is discovered. She was strangled and a unique symbol has been carved into her abdomen with possibly a scalpel. The protagonist (Reed Raleigh ) is the lead investigator. Reed is a flawed character with PTSD, an exwife and a troubled son in the ninth grade.
Soon after the girl is found there is a series of suicides. And soon after Reed discovers that this murder is almost identical to another that took place 20 years earlier. Reed soon learns that there are more missing and murdered girls. There are false leads and red herrings along the way. This town has it’s secrets and the people are doing their best to keep them.
George Newbern does a Fantastic job narrating.
This book has my HIGHEST RECOMMENDATION.
