A remote town that has been rocked by a triple murder. The sons of the two most respected families in the town were discovered dead in a parking lot, their throats cut. A third man was also found dead at the scene. An ex-con, few people are mourning his death. A local woman, Willow Snell, is in prison for the murders, having been found at the scene of the crime with no memory of what happened.
Local woman Marty Gray, who has known her own share of family heartache, is not convinced that the case is as clear cut as people want to believe. She determines to start her own investigation.
Unfortunately, with her recent foray into podcasting Marty has got a bit of a reputation in town. Though she examined the case of two missing backpackers with the best of intentions, the fallout makes it hard for her to be trusted. She is certain that the two cases are linked. Someone is determined that she be scared off looking too deeply into this case…someone who has a vested interest in keeping the activities of the towns’ golden boys a secret.
Marty is not always the most circumspect of characters, but her heart is in the right place. I liked her determination to find answers, and in the process the fact she got some form of closure for her own situation.
