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： The day Tina Crawford was born, her father tried to drown her. Her grandmother stopped him — and raised her for five years, before Tina's parents came to reclaim her. Not out of love. They needed someone to watch her brother. For years, Tina was told that her brother was her security. That family was everything. That a girl's worth was measured in how much she gave and how little she cost. She almost believed it. Then she watched her cousin Dana — brilliant, gentle, and completely betrayed by the people she'd sacrificed everything for — die at twenty years old. After that, Tina had one goal: get out. Through every exam, every stolen hour of study, every small act of survival, she built the only foundation that couldn't be taken from her. Herself. Raw, devastating, and ultimately triumphant, *The Only One Who Could Save Me* is a story about what it takes to reclaim a life that was never really given to you.Voir livre
