Maternal Instinct
A diver discovers a body in a lake near Dallas. It’s the remains of Sarah Parnell’s adopted son, Chris, who disappeared five years ago. Sarah, newly elected mayor of a Dallas suburb, is driven to find out what happened. Was it suicide or murder? Why would anyone want to murder Chris, a brilliant young med school student? Sarah ignores warnings from her ex-husband Jake and her town’s police chief to pursue the truth up the sun-baked streets and dark alleys of Dallas. Deputy Chief Matt Ellis pursues his own investigation, trying to block Sarah’s interference.
Sarah discovers secrets in Chris’s past related to his jilted lover Giffy, his best friend, Charles Morgan, his gay housemate, Rom Elver, his uncle and attorney, Anthony, his godfather and medical school colleague, David Jones and his ex-wife, Dr. Liz Jones. Many people may have entertained homicidal thoughts about the man his mother considered a paragon of virtue. As her journey progresses, the killer is in increasing danger of exposure. Now the question is whether Sarah will be able to unmask the killer before the killer stops her for good?
