Summary

An FBI Special Agent's violent past collides with the present in LJ Bourne's new blood-chilling thriller of murder, rage and dark secrets.
 
A dead girl in the woods. A well-known suspect. Twenty-year-old secrets coming to light.
 
Special Agent Lynn Rivers is sent to investigate a nightmare of a case. The mutilated body of her closest friend’s daughter has been found at a campsite. Lynn has known the victim all her life. From the outset it’s clear this will be one of the hardest cases she’s ever worked on. But she is determined to see it through, no matter what she finds.
 
That promise gets harder and harder to keep as suspects are thin on the ground and the main one is a man Lynn once knew well. A man who was the prime suspect in the death of another of Lynn’s friends twenty years ago—a cold case that still haunts her.
 
The two murders are different, yet eerily similar. To find the killer, Lynn will have to face all the dark ghosts of her past.
 
And this time, she might not survive it.
 
The Forgotten Girl is the first book in a brand-new mystery series by LJ Bourne – Lynn Rivers Mysteries. If you enjoy psychological thrillers full of dark twists and turns this book is for you!
 
A must read for fans of Harlan Coben, Lisa Gardener and Karin Slaughter.

    The ME ruled her death an accident. He was dead wrong.
 
When Mary Jane Bennett is found dead in her bed— alone, strangled by her own scarf, and with every door in the house locked — the medical examiner rules her death accidental, the result of a sex game gone horribly awry. State police decline to investigate further, but Queensbridge Police Chief Caleb Crane doesn't buy for a minute that his good friend died this way, so he undertakes his own investigation. Facing town councilors afraid of bad publicity, an angry medical examiner, and his own personal demons, he labors to solve what he believes is the first-ever murder in his pastoral Berkshire Hills village. Complicating things: the list of suspects includes some of the people to whom he is closest — including his own wife.
