Book description
There is no statute of limitations on murder. Look Closely. That's all
the anonymous letter said, but attorney Hailey Sutter understands the
meaning behind the well-chosen words. Someone wants her to investigate
what happened to her mother, who died when Hailey was only seven. The
death was ruled accidental, but Hailey begins having flashbacks that
tell a different story: a pounding at the door...her mother struggling
to stand...a man with a gold ring that flashed in the night as he held
her mother's lifeless body. Obsessed with uncovering the truth, Hailey
can't trust anyone, especially her father, whose secrecy both unnerves
and protects her. Desperate to remember that fatal night, she seeks out
the brother and sister who left home after their mother's death. But
they have disappeared. It's soon clear to Hailey that the answer is
right in front of her--all she has to do is find the courage to look
closely.... There is no statute of limitations on murder. Look
