Who killed psychotherapist Helen Brunswick and why?
Harper sent me an ARC of this book for review (thank you). The book will be published June 10th, so make a note to pick it up then at your local bookstore.
This is a convoluted story with past and present crime connecting in a strange way and making deep dark secrets from the past come to light.
We have Hatcher and Rogan assigned to look into the matter after the DA's office gets an anonymous letter with inside knowledge on the murders in the past. They have a man in jail, but is he the right man? And should Ellie work on the case when she's living with the man who assigned the case?
Into this mix, add a rabid attorney that makes her money by finding the investigators at fault and freeing those "falsely" found guilty. She's on the case looking for dirt and has hired a young attorney whose sister was one of the victims.
This not an easy case or a quick fix. There are all sorts of players involved and the murders weren't all done by one man. People got hurt and will get hurt again while it's all sorted.
The story is fast moving complex tale that keeps your attention and makes you wonder how many are involved and who is really guilty. Ms. Burke delivers a good suspenseful tale again.

Long Gone by Alafair Burke
After being laid off for months, Alice finally finds a perfect job. At least it was shaping up that way until her employer got murdered in the art galley...
HarperCollins Publishers sent me an ARC of this book for review. It is being published this month, so check with your local bookstore for a copy.
Alice's family is a family of secrets. Some are not so well hidden, but we don't talk about them. It's how all these secrets tie together and come back to haunt them that makes the core of this story.
The plot is complex, people from all walks of life get involved, and it doesn't have a particularly happy ending. But it will keep you glued to the story as you watch the pieces unfold and see the consequences of actions done without much thought.
I bet it won't take you too long to read this book. And, if you'd like my ARC, comment here on the blog and then email me at info at bookfaerie.com with your name AND address and tell me why you'd like to read it.
Happy reading.
