Meanwhile as Detective Andy Mohr attempts to sort out the complex case, he realizes that this is the second time alexander has on Mother's Day. Is it pure coincidence or a bloody pattern?In this gripping mystery, two determined women and a seasoned detective are led down a complex path to solving a murder.
