What happens when you can no longer believe what you see, when what you see is you committing a robbery you know you didn’t?
Missing twin sisters. A chilling revelation. Will this be the case that breaks the Cold Case Squad? Twenty years earlier, a set of female eighteen-year-old twins went missing in the Bay Area. There were no news reports or national coverage. The original investigators had barely touched the case, and like so many other cases of missing teens, were quickly labeled runaways, and the file sat on the shelf. Baffled by the lack of attention for the sisters, Martina insists it will be Hirsch and the Cold Case Squad’s next case. Undeterred by the lack of prior research, the team dives into the case, employing methods of investigation and forensic technology not available twenty years earlier. This could be the case where time is actually on their side. When the team catches their first big break, the discovery of one sister’s remains and a lead on the second, they shift the case from missing persons to homicide. With the news, Martina and Hirsch dig deeper into the women’s lives before they disappeared. With a no-stone-unturned approach and DNA results back from the lab, they soon find a shocking connection to one of their own. Concerned the information could jeopardize getting justice for the victims’ family, Martina and Hirsch now must work in the shadows in order to find answers to what happened all those years ago. Will Martina and Hirsch be able to expose the truth without endangering themselves, their jobs, and the future of the Cold Case Squad? How She Fell is the 7th installment of the twisty, fast-paced Martina Monroe crime thriller series.Voir livre

Description： My son said he had a surprise for me. He brought home a pregnant girl — the daughter of my ex-husband's lifelong obsession — and expected me to celebrate. I didn't celebrate. I threw them out. What followed was a war I hadn't wanted. Derek turned on me with a ferocity I hadn't thought him capable of. Money, manipulation, manufactured crises — and then something far worse. I had worked for thirty years to build everything we had, sacrifice by sacrifice, and my own child looked at it all and saw only what he stood to inherit. So I made a choice: stop being the mother who always gave in. Start being the woman who paid attention. They thought they had me figured out. They thought they knew exactly what a mother would and wouldn't do. They were wrong. *A gripping story of sacrifice, betrayal, and a woman who refuses to be erased.*Voir livre
