The Sisters of Tall Pines - Paperback

by Emerald O'Brien (Author)

Two sisters with a troubled past.
A murderer with a kill list. How long until he gets to them?

Grace was seven years old when her sister told her she saw a dead body in their childhood foster home. Between that and the drug trafficking her foster father was eventually arrested for, it's no surprise that Grace wound up a detective.

But Grace's world is turned upside down when she discovers her current homicide investigation is connected to similar murders in the neighbouring city of Amherst. Is she chasing a serial killer? Going back to the city where she began her career is complicated to say the least-her old colleagues seem hellbent on jamming her up.

Grace's sister Madigan isn't a detective in the official sense, but that doesn't stop her from answering a call for help from John Talbot, another child who spent time in the same foster home. John believes someone is after him...and it might be related to a crime their foster father committed-one that was never pinned on him. It's not the first time John has dragged Madigan into a dangerous situation, but her loyalty knows no bounds.

When the sisters discover their foster father was murdered in prison, their goals shift to staying alive. It seems that anyone with a connection to their past is in danger. Someone is tying up loose ends...and fast.

It's a race against time. And it will take more than the bonds they've forged to survive.

Lovers of Tess Gerritsen, Lisa Regan, Kendra Elliot, Allison Brennan, Melinda Leigh, and Meghan O'Flynn are sure to enjoy this gripping, heart-wrenching, and totally unpredictable series by Emerald O'Brien.
