Description

Dark family secrets and blood-chilling suspense converge in this riveting thriller by USA Today bestselling author Carolyn Ridder Aspenson. When a prominent surgeon and his wife are found dead in small-town Georgia, Detective Rachel Ryder and her partner Rob Bishop are first on the scene. But while the detectives have solved many tough cases in the past, they've never seen anything like this one. Because the dead woman lying at the surgeon's side isn't actually his wife-it's her twin sister. And now both the wife and her son are nowhere to be found. As Rachel and Rob dig deeper into the case, they're confronted with a series of dead ends and complications that threaten to derail the entire investigation. With the same face, the same DNA, and the same ambitions in life, the two women are nearly impossible to distinguish-and every clue comes with a sinister mirror image. With the clock ticking on the missing boy and his mother, Rachel and Rob will chase every lead until they crack the case-if they can untangle the web of dark family secrets, double lives, and deadly betrayals. _______________________ Praise for Carolyn Ridder Aspenson and the Rachel Ryder series: "Detective Rachel Ryder is smart, tough, and fearless-readers will gladly follow her through every twist." -LynDee Walker, Amazon Charts bestselling author of Fear No Truth "Tight writing, unexpected twists, and the tough but vulnerable lead Detective Rachel Ryder will leave you eager to read the next book..." -Susan Hunter, author of Dangerous Habits "Rachel Ryder is a new heroine on the suspense scene that you'll want to engage with again and again." -Kimberly Charleston, Books Uplift
