Produktbeschreibung

Jackie Siegel and Aaron Slater were an odd pair in high school. He was the popular jock and she was the introverted geek, but their friendship endured until graduation, when he suddenly dumped her with no explanation. Ten years later, Aaron is arrested for one of the most notorious murders in recent history. Labeled by the media as "The Snapchat Killer," he is accused of posting videos of a college student before brutally murdering her. Rather than standing trial, Aaron takes a plea deal and is sent to prison. He reaches out to Jackie, who is now a paralegal, and begs for her help, proclaiming his innocence. Jackie is drawn into the case and the opportunity to reconnect with her estranged friend, yet the conflicting evidence and bizarre clues leave her wondering if she is helping an innocent man or being played for a fool. It wouldn't be the first time.

Autorenporträt

Liz Lazarus grew up in Valdosta, Georgia, known for its high school football and being the last watering hole on highway I-75 before entering Florida. She was editor of her high school newspaper and salutatorian of her class. Lazarus graduated from The Georgia Institute of Technology with an engineering degree and Northwestern's Kellogg Graduate School of Management with an MBA. She went on to a successful career as an executive at General Electric's Healthcare division. Later, she joined a leading consulting firm as a Managing Director.

Interestingly, Lazarus initially ignored the calling to become a novelistinstead, she tackled other ambitions on her bucket list: living in Paris and learning to speak French, getting her pilot's license and producing a music CD. But, as she explains, her first book "wouldn't leave me aloneit kept nudging me to write to the point that I could no longer ignore it."

Though her first novel, Free of Malice, is fiction, the attack on the main character is real, drawn from Lazarus' own experience. It portrays the emotional realities of healing from a vicious, physical assault and tells the story of one woman's obsession to force the legal system to acknowledge her right to self-defense.

Reader response to Lazarus' first novel was so encouraging that she embarked on a writing career. Her second novel, Plea for Justice, is a thriller that depicts the journey of a paralegal investigating the case of her estranged friend's incarceration. As she seeks the truth, loyalties are strained and relationships are tested leaving her to wonder if she is helping an innocent man or being played for a fool.

Her third novel, Shades of Silence, showcases the resilience of a woman faced with devastating loss, the unexpected friendships forged from tragedy and the recurring societal themes that confront every generation.
