As news of the discovery makes headlines, Olivia and the people close to her suddenly become targets for a murderer bent on revenge. Still stunned by the revelation and its implications, Olivia puts her trust in Trey show more Bonney, the detective assigned to the case. But neither counts on a madman who may hold the answer to the twenty-five-year-old mystery--a secret someone hoped was buried for good. show lessTags

Interesting murder mystery. Dinah McCall/Sharon Sala has become one of my go to authors. I know that her books will at least be a pretty solid read.
This one was more involved with the mystery aspect and the romance while important was sort of "easy" I guess. Well written and the plot made sense. I did figure out the bad guy but not immediately so that was good. Some characters who could have become caricatures instead went in other directions which is always pleasant. Even the secondary characters were very well rounded.

-- a cop and a rich gal get back together but with very convoluted bloodlines due to interaction of a lot of families and people and a flipper of an ending, with the villain being one no one suspected
Typical Sharon Sala suspense.

- Dedication
- For every wanted baby, there is another somewhere else who never feels the love of a mother's touch. I dedicate this story to them,
and to Christina Carol, our own little baby who was born with two thumbs on one hand and who had to learn at a very early age how to live in the world without her mother's love.
I also dedicate this book to her mother, Diane, who was taken from us too early - before her work on earth was done. - First words
- Marshall Baldwin was wielding the sledgehammer in his hands with as much delicacy as he moved through life, which was little to none.
- Last words
- (Click to show. Warning: May contain spoilers.)Then, from somewhere off in the distance, so if they'd listened just a little bit longer they might have heard it, came a baby's soft giggle, and then the sound lf little feet running quickly through the leaves upon the ground.
