Legacy of Lies

About the Book

There are cases that teach you. Cases that change you. And then there are the ones that won’t let you go. Zara Rhodes was a Criminology student who spent hours sifting through a twenty-year-old cold case, piecing together fragments of the past. But the thing about the past is that it doesn’t always stay where it belongs. Sometimes, it crashes into your life, shattering everything you thought you knew. It should have been just another research project. It should have remained a puzzle with missing pieces. But as she continued to pull at the thread, the truth began to slip through, and slowly everything she thought she knew about her life turned out to be a lie.
