DESCRIPTION:
Southern Gal said A jolly good read. Lottie Parker is grieving the loss of her husband to cancer. She has three teenagers at home she's trying to raise alone. Lottie's relationship with her mother is sour, and she's battling alcohol addiction as well as teetering on the brink of a breakdown. As if she didn't have enough on her plate, Lead Detective Lottie Parker's life just got a lot more complicated when a string of murders in a matter of days tests her resolve as a detective.

Characters that are so real, that one thinks you know them. A fascinating plot that stretches and blows the readers mind. My only complaint was lack of sleep to finish the book, to unravel the mystery. A beginning, a middle, and end that captivated this avid reader. Thank you Patrcia Gibney, for a fascinating tale, and also for utterly scaring the hell out of me.

The trail leads Lottie to St Angela's, a former children's home, with a dark connection to her own family history. A white flour bag encased the little body. Three small faces watched from the window, eyes black with terror. The child in the middle spoke without turning his head. Both bodies have the same distinctive tattoo clumsily inscribed on their legs. "I wonder which one of us will be next?" When a woman's body is discovered in a cathedral and hours later a young man is found hanging from a tree outside his home, Detective Lottie Parker is called in to lead the investigation. The hole t
