Village murders are the easy ones. Right? Wrong.

When DI Daniel Ward is called out to a murder in the pretty village of Silsden, he’s expecting an easy to solve domestic case. A tragic loss of life leaving a young baby without a father, a wife without a husband, and a village without a devoted doctor.

Everyone’s a suspect—the trouble is, he can’t pin any of them. Worse still, he’s not sure who’s guilty, and who he’s supposed to be protecting. Everyone Ward suspects is hiding a secret, but the murderer isn’t done. DI Ward needs to discover the truth behind the lies before it’s too late for another victim…

Or maybe it was just beginning…

With a little help from her friends, a single girl’s checklist, and a charismatic guy from her past, Roxie is only a few checkmarks away from reclaiming her life. She’ll forget about being the good wife, and start living the good LIFE – even if it means getting thrown out of a bar or skinny-dipping in her neighbor’s pool at 3am.

What they’re doing to her client is a crime.

Attorney Dani Rollins is bullish in the courtroom—pushing judges and prosecutors to their limits in defense of the innocent. So when she meets Teddy Thorne, a mentally challenged teen accused of selling drugs, Dani knows she’s got this in the bag. She can easily settle the case with a couple of court appearances. But when prosecutors move for an adult felony conviction, Dani suspects Teddy’s being used as a pawn in a sinister game.

As the case moves forward, Dani is certain the judge and district attorney’s office have motivations beyond the crime—a fair trial isn’t in the cards. And when she takes on guardianship of Teddy, the case becomes personal as she fights her own demons and the government. Dani will stop at nothing to protect this innocent boy—there’s no other option. Because if she loses, both she and Teddy could lose far more than just the case…
