The gripping third book in the internationally acclaimed series by New York Times bestselling author Robert Dugoni.
Detective Tracy Crosswhite has a skill, and a soft spot, for tackling unsolved crimes. Having lost her own sister to murder at a young age, Tracy has dedicated her career to bringing justice and closure to the families and friends of victims of crime.
So when Jenny, a former police academy classmate and protégé, asks Tracy to help solve a cold case that involves the suspicious suicide of a Native American high school girl forty years earlier, Tracy agrees. Following up on evidence Jenny’s detective father collected when he was the investigating deputy, Tracy probes one small town’s memory and finds dark, well-concealed secrets hidden within the community’s fabric. Can Tracy uphold the promise she’s made to the dead girl’s family and deliver the truth of what happened to their daughter? Or will she become the next victim?

We have two murder stories going on. The main is a 40 year old case in a small town involving the death of an American Indian girl in 1976. Originally classified a suicide by the ME, the Sheriff in 1976 and Tracy, herself, believe it to be murder. Proving it is another matter and the way Mr., Dugoni goes about solving the crime is very good. He throws a good twist into the mix as the methodical solving of the case is unfolding.
The secondary murder takes place in Tracy's hometown of Seattle and involves a case of domestic abuse. Her usual supporting cast are busy solving this one. for good measure, Mr. Dugoni has thrown a twist in here as well.
The main protagonist, Tracy Crosswhite and her supporting cast from the Seattle PD are very well developed. The Crosswhite novels are a bit different in that they methodically detail the crimes as thrillers. They also detail the solving of the crimes very well as police procedurals.
Once again, Mr. Dugoni just keeps moving forward steadily. He wastes no chapters with unwanted fillers or fluff.
This is the 3rd installment of the original trilogy there is a 4th book I will be reading after I finish the book I am reading!
