Secrets of Griffin Gate
Also available on your favorite audio book platform.
Years after Detective James Ross is murdered, his daughter, LUCY, returns to Griffin Gate—the Ross family home—to find out who killed him. Her only clues come from an old family video recorder depicting her father’s last moments before he was shot. In the process of readying the place for her mom’s arrival, and applying her meager sleuthing skills to the crime, she uncovers hidden gems in the Victorian house. Lucy realizes Griffin Gate is more than just the family homeplace. It has harbored secrets not only about her past, but also about her father’s murder.
Scottish Detective MALCOLM KNOX has chosen to spend a sabbatical year in Arkansas working with the Diamond Creek Police Department. Malcolm chose the town in order to find out who killed his dad’s oldest and dearest friend, James Ross. During Malcolm’s investigation, he discovers that Lucy, the beautiful and secretive woman he meets at the Policeman’s Masked Ball, has also moved to town with a secret mission—one that undermines him and his investigation.
When Lucy becomes the target of someone’s malicious pranks, she and Knox must trust each other and work together to discover and stop the killer before he closes in on her.
