Publisher's Synopsis
JESSICA'S DEATH
Detectives Jill Garvey and Dan Lee are no strangers to violent death, but the senseless and brutal killing of an affluent woman, her body found in a decaying urban neighborhood far from her home, shakes them to the core. Clues don't add up and no possible suspects seem quite right. They dig ever deeper into the background of the victim until the story of a horrendous death begins to evolve into the story of a tragic life... and a portrait emerges of a profoundly troubled woman.
But in that life story, will they find the answers they need to bring a vicious killer to justice?
SOMETIMES THEY DIE
Frank Vandegraf knows that sometimes, random street robberies go bad. Sometimes the victims die. But this time, it's a shady and universally despised attorney who's been murdered by a mugger, and it gives him pause as to just how random the killing was. As he struggles to make sense of a crime with not enough evidence and too many suspects, his life is being turned around in other ways. After several years of working solo, he's been assigned a new partner; and together they must deal with another unsolved assault and robbery that tests their ability to work together...
