Book description
She lives in the present, with a son she adores and the perfect job, and dreams of the future. But single mom Allison Clemmins never lets herself relive the day, years ago, when she found her mother and siblings murdered. Ever since, she's hated the man convicted for the crimes; her own father. But another man may now have a different side to the story.

Reeling from the possibility of her father's innocence, Allison lets attorney Seth Walker unearth long dead secrets of people who could have spoken up years ago. In return, Seth offers her the one thing missing from her life; the ability to trust a man. But as fate finds the pair in each other's arms, a psychotic killer makes himself known....and now everything Allison holds dear hangs in the balance.

Carla Cassidy’s Last Gasp takes place 15 years after the murder of Allison Clemmins’ mother and siblings, a horrific act that still haunts the single mother, as does her hatred for the killer—her father. Needless to say, when Seth Walker arrives in town to prove the convicted felon’s innocence, Allison is incensed. The case was open and shut. Or was it? The recent discovery in town of butchered animals raises the possibility that the killer is still at large.

Allison wants to trust Seth. And he’s right, there were other suspects back then—the town drunk, for one, who was fixated on Allison’s mother. But more worrisome: if her father is innocent, that means someone is aiming to finish the horror he started all those years ago….
