FBI special agent Zoe Spencer uses skeletal remains to recreate the faces of murder victims through sculpture. Though highly scientific, the process is also sensitive and intimate; she becomes attached to the individuals she identifies, desperate to find justice for each. As Zoe examines old remains, she sees a teenage girl looking back at her - the victim in a cold case from over a decade ago.

By: Mary Burton
Publisher's Summary
Murder is not a one-size-fits-all crime. People kill for many reasons. Revenge. Jealously. Hate. Even love. Officer Georgia Morgan with the Nashville Police Department Forensics Unit didn’t generally care about motivation behind a killing. That was big picture. She cared about the micro picture: hair fibers, fingerprints, DNA, and all the other minute details that proved guilt or innocence. Homicide Detective Jake Bishop was her opposite. He saw the forest, not the trees. Sure, he’d use Georgia’s forensic work in the courtroom to sway a jury, but when it came to day-to-day investigations, it took a back seat. With the clock ticking to catch a killer, Bishop didn’t wait for backed-up state labs or fingerprint analysis.

Too Short, but Great + a Gateway to Someone New
Far too short, I thought this was an entire book, then realized once it was in my library that it was only 20 odd minutes long. I decided to check it out anyways, and it’s good. I want MORE!
*chuckles*..it has been an unusual way (for me at least), to discover a new to me Author, but I’m glad I did...I look forward to listening to one of her full length books..
Give this a Listen, like Me, this may end up being Your gateway to a new and interesting Author....Enjoy!, I did...
