Sinossi

When widowed piano teacher Margaret Halberg takes in Delia, a courteous young woman needing a place to stay, it feels simple enough: no guests, shared chores, one month to see how it goes. Margaret wants her routines. Delia brings warmth. And the house, once so still, begins to feel alive again.But unease creeps in.Delia cooks, cleans, and listens yet she asks questions no one else would. She lingers in doorways, studies family photos too closely. And behind Margaret’s careful manners, dread grows with every hushed phone call, every pill that goes missing.As Margaret’s health slips and old memories surface letters left unsent, names never spoken the line between guest and intruder blurs. Delia may not just be renting a room. She may be reclaiming a life that was never hers.When the past knocks and smiles at the door, is it offering peace or demanding reckoning?***Like every tale in Turning Points, this one proves that trust is fragile and nothing is ever what it seems.Turning Points is a twist-driven series where the unexpected always finds you. From unsettling family dramas to sharp-edged sci-fi and dark comedy, each book delivers a jolt a secret, a reveal that turns the truth upside down. These stories cut across suspense, emotion, and ideas built to linger, written for readers who crave the gasp, the double-take, the moment that shifts everything.You’ll question what looks certain. You’ll flip back through pages.Because here, trust is never safe and every ending rewrites the start.

    In this mesmerizing tale of suspense from New York Times bestselling author Phillip Margolin, attorney Amanda Jaffe—star of Wild Justice, Ties That Bind, Proof Positive, and Fugitive—becomes entangled in a murder case involving Big Oil, an estranged father and son, and the greatest ethical dilemma of her career . 
    Dale Masterson, senior partner in a large Portland, Oregon, law firm, has become wealthy and successful representing the interests of oil and coal companies. When his colleague, Christine Larson, is found dead, Masterson’s business practices are put under surveillance and a lower-level employee stands accused. 
    The controversy surrounding the firm is magnified tenfold when Dale is found beaten to death in his mansion. But this time Dale’s son, Brandon, is seen fleeing the scene. A dedicated eco-warrior obsessed with saving the planet, Brandon confesses to killing his father—for revenge, he claims—on behalf of all the people whose lives are being destroyed by his father’s questionable clients. 
    Veteran lawyer Amanda Jaffe is hired to represent Brandon, but what seems like an open-and-shut case quickly begins to unravel. If Brandon is really innocent—a radical activist determined to martyr himself for his cause—then who viciously murdered Dale Masterson? And what, if any, is the connection between his murder and the murder of Christine Larson? Smart, fierce, and unafraid of the truth even if it puts her in danger, Amanda begins to look deeper. What she finds will force the seasoned legal pro to make the hardest professional decision of her life.

Mark Shrader had prayed that someday he would have the chance for vengeance on his wife’s killers. Now it appeared that his chance might have come. Mark Shrader asked the immigrants to help him fight back against their captors and several of them agreed.

But would he be able to reach her in time?
