Produktbeschreibung
Los Angeles attorney, Alex Carreras, has it all-a position with a prestigious law firm, an engagement to the boss's daughter, and a budding political career-until the night he stops to help a murdered girl in a battered Chevy van. Now he's a suspect. The cops are saying he knew her. He didn't, but, in order to clear his name, he must get to know the victim-and everyone she knew-very well. Alex is clearly being set up, but by whom and for what reason? Most of the investigators on the case just want to close it and move on, but Detective Murray Schmitz believes there's more to story than meets the eye. And she not only has the ability to track down the real killer, she has the desire. Both Alex and Murray want to find the truth, no matter the consequences. But while it can clear Alex's name and cement Murray's reputation in her department, it can also lead them both to the same end as the girl in the van…
Autorenporträt
As an anthropology student many years ago, Trisha O'Keefe became aware of the past's potential for mystery. While living and studying in Egypt, she began writing with that connection in mind. "Until an instructor remarked some of my papers read more like novels," O'Keefe says. After traveling and studying abroad for 14 years, O'Keefe returned home to the States where she enrolled in graduate school to continue her work in alternative healing traditions. Finally, in response to her mother's question, "What are you going to do for a living?" the author took a teaching job. "I thought I knew something until I got in the classroom. They taught me how ignorant I really am," she says. "And still do." For her literature students, she wrote a book on William Shakespeare, The Bard Rocks, published in 2006 by KIB Publications. O'Keefe lives in Georgia where she teaches and, of course, writes mysteries.
