Told in alternating timelines, this gripping mystery about a PI and her quest for answers is full of twists and turns, perfect for fans of Allison Brennan and Gytha Lodge.
Struggling private investigator Kate Myles is shattered to learn her late father isn't her biological dad. She's still reeling when she discovers that an unknown distant relative is the prime suspect in a decades-old murder investigation. Trying to convince her to take on the case for free, an old colleague recommends her as an investigator for a recent arson murder in the same small town.
After giving up on a failed acting career, Abby Coburn is starting over as a promising social work student. With her life on the right track, she's determined to help her brother, Jacob, whose meth addiction triggered a psychotic break and descent into crime. But when Abby dies in a fire that kills two other people and destroys part of the town, the police immediately suspect Jacob.

      The twists keep coming in this devilish PI mystery from Kenna (What Meets the Eye). Kate Myles left the LAPD after a spinal injury led to a painkiller addiction that cost her custody of her daughter. Struggling financially, Kate has returned to her childhood home, hoping to save enough money from private detective work to contest the custody decision. Then Kate’s former colleague, homicide detective Harry Castile, contacts her via a genetics website and tells her that a person whose DNA profile matches Myles’s is the prime suspect in the unsolved killing of teenager Lisa Forester, whose strangled corpse was found buried under a woodpile in Idlewood, Calif., 20 years earlier. Harry, who’s eager to close the cold case, thinks the suspect must be a distant cousin of Kate’s, and asks her to move to Idlewood to investigate. To make it worth her while, Harry recommends Kate to an Idlewood couple seeking a private eye to help exonerate their son, Jacob Coburn, who was accused of starting the fire that killed his sister, Abby. Kenna alternates chapters focused on Kate’s investigation into the cold case with flashbacks that flesh out Abby’s backstory, setting the two narratives on an unpredictable collision course. Lisa Unger fans will devour this. Agent: Liza Fleissig, Liza Royce Agency.
