Death In The Family

More about the book

A storm-struck island, a blood-soaked bed, and a missing man lead Senior Investigator Shana Merchant to suspect a killer is among them, believing that murder is a family affair. Thirteen months after surviving an abduction by a serial killer, Shana seeks a fresh start in her fiancé's tranquil hometown in Upstate New York. However, as a nor'easter approaches, she and fellow investigator Tim Wellington are called to a private island owned by the wealthy Sinclair family to investigate a missing person. Upon arrival, they find blood at the scene and a house filled with anxious Sinclair family members and friends. While Tim suspects a runaway, Shana is convinced they are dealing with murder. As the storm rages, she conducts interviews and uncovers dark secrets among the Sinclairs and their guests. Trapped on the island with only Tim—whose reliability is in doubt—and her own traumatic memories, Shana must learn to trust herself again. With time running out and the threat of a killer lurking, the pressure mounts as she races against the clock to uncover the truth before another life is lost.
