Amazon Synopsis for The Girl Who
Lied
Rain hammers the earth and a vicious wind
rattles the trees. Then lightning strikes, the flash illuminating a young girl
staggering out of the woods, her brown eyes wide with fright, a silent scream
on her lips…
There’s a storm approaching the tiny Maine
town of Coyote Cove when Chief Maggie Riley comes across the body of a man,
blood seeping from stab wounds into the damp forest floor. As she desperately
struggles to secure the evidence before the rain hits, Heather, a local teenage
girl, emerges from the woods, shivering and unable to talk.
Maggie, once a high flying big-city
detective, lost everything when her four-year-old brother went missing five
years ago. Heart-broken, she’s never stopped searching for him: but now she is
plunged back into the world she left behind.
The victim, Maggie discovers, knew secrets
about everyone in isolated Coyote Cove. It seems there are more local suspects
in this case than people she can rule out. And with Heather still traumatised,
Maggie struggles to unravel her strange appearance at the crime scene. Until,
following a faint, bloody trail deep into the forest, she’s horrified to
unearth what the terrified girl’s been hiding…
But when Heather is kidnapped, the battle
to identify the killer becomes a race to save an innocent girl’s life. And with
the whole town terrified, Maggie is shocked to uncover that this twisted killer
is much closer to home than she’d ever imagined. Battling her own demons and
memories of her missing brother, how far will Maggie have to go to save
Heather? Or will another innocent young life be lost forever...?
A totally addictive crime thriller packed
with suspense. If you love Lisa Regan, Louise Penny and Melinda Leigh, you’ll
love The Girl Who Lied.
Amazon Synopsis for Their Angel’s
Cry.
The little dog trembles and whimpers, but
refuses to move. Maggie reaches further into the undergrowth, trying to tempt
it out. But as she moves closer, she sees something that stops her heart—a
tiny, shivering baby, wrapped in a thin, pink blanket, saved only by its loyal
protector.
There’s a ferocious storm heading toward
the isolated town of Coyote Cove when Chief Maggie Riley gets the call every
cop dreads. Three bodies have been found on Rattlesnake Mountain, half a day’s
hike from civilization. And when Maggie finally reaches the site, exhausted and
freezing, she discovers something even more terrifying—a tiny baby girl, kept
alive only by the warmth of a small dog who refuses to leave her side.
As Maggie races the baby to safety, she
wonders, why on earth the family risked hiking the mountain in this weather?
Who were they and who could possibly have killed them?
A former detective, Maggie may be an
experienced investigator, but she’s still an unwelcome newcomer. Battling town
prejudice, her fears for the orphaned baby, and the increasingly dangerous
weather, Maggie soon discovers the case is far more complicated than she could
have imagined. The family is not who they seemed. The mother has never had a
baby, there’s no link between them at all. So whose baby is it, and where are
they now?
With Coyote Cove cut off by the storm,
Maggie knows that wherever the killer is, they won’t be able to leave. Stuck in
town with a murderer on the loose, Maggie must race to find them before anyone else
gets hurt. But she hasn’t counted on the killer taking matters into their own
hands, and going after Maggie first…
An utterly compelling and addictive crime
thriller, perfect for fans of Melinda Leigh, D.K. Hood and Lisa Regan.
