Produktbeschreibung
Shattered and desperately in need of healing, Kera Van Brocklin has left one war zone only to find another awaits her at home. Her father's funeral is only the beginning of a breach in her Michigan hometown's peace as LGBT activists push for civil rights only to be stymied by a mysteriously funded "citizens” group. She doesn't want to take sides, but has little choice: she is an out lesbian and her old friend Mandy is leading the charge for rights. Her feelings for Mandy, after all these years, only complicate her emotional stability. Her decision puts Kera further at odds with her twin, Deidre, whose marriage to a right-wing religious leader strains their once close relationship. With tension running high, the last thing anyone expects is a brutal murder-and that Kera is the prime suspect. A page-turning story of murder, love and justice from newcomer Jody Valley!
Autorenporträt
Growing up, Jody Valley wrote poetry and short stories to bare her teenage rebellious soul-in lieu of a journal. She wanted to be either a spy or a reporter, and to never give up her skepticism. When her family frowned on her entering the field of espionage, she settled for becoming a clinical social worker - fulfilling her need to spy - and writing columns and feature stores for newspapers, as well as fighting for social justice. Jody has combined her years as a journalist with her years as a clinical social worker and a social activist to write her first suspenseful mystery novel. She lives with her partner of twenty-four years, and three dogs. Together, they have four adult children and two adorable granddaughters-with another granddaughter on the way. She does much of her writing at her cabin on a lake in northern Michigan.
