The Empty House: The Strait Between Us Book Two
A woman is found dead in an empty winter cottage on Prince Edward Island.
The man everyone expects to blame may not be the person who killed her.
Retired school principal Ruth Lennox had spent years rebuilding her life after the death of her teenage daughter in a drunk driving crash. Then, quietly and without telling those closest to her, she began corresponding with the man responsible.
When Ruth is discovered dead beside a fading fire, with two mugs on the table and no sign of forced entry, investigator Anna Keating is drawn into a case shaped by old grief, family loyalty and secrets that were never meant to surface.
As the investigation crosses the Northumberland Strait and reaches into a tragedy thirteen years old, Anna begins to realise that Ruth's death may have less to do with hatred than with something far more complicated.
Because forgiveness does not mean forgetting.
And sometimes the people who survive the same tragedy do not survive it in the same way.
The Empty Houses is Book Two in The Strait Between Us, an atmospheric crime series about murder, memory, community and the hidden lives of people who know one another too well.
