Library Assistant Cory Parker gets more than she bargains for when a rekindled childhood friendship with Elizabeth Strafford catapults her on the trail of a murderer. Cory and Elizabeth have more in common than having once shared a school bus. They've both lost people they love through violence. Cory sets out to solve the murder of Elizabeth's mother in order to give her friend the peace and closure she needs. The past bleeds into the present as Cory uncovers a murder plot gone bad, the truth of which threatens to destroy both women. A stranger interferes with Cory's research as clues emerge, intimately tying Elizabeth to the killer. Evidence linking the murderer to the crime turns up in Cory’s possession, making her a target. Cory closes in on the killer--just as the killer closes in on her.

I was provided this e-book from the publisher in exchange for an honest review. Marguerite Sansone is a new to me author who writes a fabulous thriller/mystery. I wasn't surprised that Cory turned out to be a better investigator that most had hoped. While she is looking for clues as to the what and who murdered her friends mom... She gets more than she bargained for. You will be on the edge of your seat while this story unwinds. I caught myself holding my breath at times, as I was so anxious to what was going to happen next. Certainly a must read! 4.4/5 stars. Reviewed for My Book Addiction and More.
