    From USA Today bestselling author Trisha Wolfe comes her most gripping psychological thriller yet. 
    Lakin Hale, true crime writer and victim of an attack that left her for dead, helps crime solvers and victims close cold cases, yet there is one crime she hasn’t been able to solve: 
    Her own. 
    As she embarks on a new case, working closely with Special Agent Rhys Nolan, the details of the murder begin to eerily resemble the event that nearly ended her life. A silhouette of a man haunts her dreams, but there were only two people there that night—Lakin and her murderer. Is the phantom hero who pulled her from the water a delusion, or is he the only one who can unlock her dark memories? 
    Buried in a watery grave of lotuses, the victim calls out to Lakin, unearthing painful memories of what was stolen from her that fateful night. For those that played a part, it’s now time to answer for their sins.

    There is something about the number 3.  
    The Ancient Greeks believed 3 was the perfect number, and in China 3 has always been a lucky number, and they know a thing or two. 
    Most religions also have 3 this and 3 that and, of course, in these more modern times, three’s a crowd may be too many, except when it’s a ménage à trois. It seems good things usually come in threes. 
    Whatever history and culture says WE think 3, a hat-trick of stories, is a great number to explore themes and literary avenues that classic authors were so adept at creating. 
    From their pens to your your ears.

    The road gave up before the mountains did. 
    Jace Rawlins eased his mule to a stop where the wagon ruts thinned into nothing but broken stone and roots. The ridgeline ahead rose like a wall—dark timber, thick as a closed fist, with mist clinging low in the hollows. No fences. No smoke. No sign of welcome. 
    He checked the leather satchel at his side. Inside were his census sheets, neat and official, stamped with a government seal that meant less out here than a handshake—or a warning. 
    "Just names and numbers," he muttered, as if saying it enough times might make it true. 
    The mule flicked an ear, unimpressed. 
    Jace had worked hard ground before. River towns that didn't trust a man without mud on his boots. Cattle camps where a stranger's worth was measured by how quick he could duck. He'd talked his way through all of it. Sold men on things they didn't need and soothed folks who didn't want soothing. 
    But the Appalachians… these hills felt different. Older. Like they didn't forget.

    Description:
    On the day she decided to leave her husband, he pushed her down the stairs.
    
    When Vivian opened her eyes, she was back in tenth grade — top student, bright future ahead, the college entrance exam two years away.
    
    She had made one catastrophic mistake in her previous life: trusting the wrong people. The man who seemed like a once-in-a-lifetime love had been a deliberate fiction. The best friend who stood by her through every disaster had been the architect of every disaster.
    
    This time, Vivian sees it all before it begins.
    
    *Second Chance at the Finish Line* is a sharp, satisfying story of rebirth and retribution — a young woman who died before she could live, given one more attempt to get it right. She knows the playbook. She knows the players.
    
    This time, she's not playing defense.
    
    The exam is waiting. So is she.
