What He Left Behind

In this town, everyone has a secret they’d kill to keep.

Oak Hill, North Carolina is a sleepy community where nothing exciting ever happens, a town so tiny it has no room for secrets. So when a stranger is found murdered in a cornfield, Detective Grace Bingham is forced to partner with Jack Sawyer—a big city detective who broke her heart and fled the town years prior—in order to uncover the explosive truth.

As Grace ID’s the Jane Doe, her identity points toward their tragic case from fifteen years ago and the powerful Dockery family. Grace and Sawyer race to piece together their case, armed with new evidence for the first time in decades, even if the town has turned against them. After all, everybody has a secret they’d kill to keep.

A Smoothe Read

Thanks to the author for the free read! This book was a smooth read with clear and likable characters.

The narrator was able to show the different characters changing their voice, which was awesome to follow along easier

I was very happy with the narration distinguished between each character well. Made it very easy to follow along.
