The Secrets They Left Behind: A Mystery

Three missing girls, no leads, a vault of dark secrets, and a case that´s getting chillier by the minute, set the stage for this nail-biting procedural from former cold case homicide detective and acclaimed author Lissa Marie Redmond. Three college freshmen go missing from their rural hometown of Kelly´s Falls while on Christmas break. Their cell phones, coats, and purses are left behind, but the girls have disappeared without a trace. As the days turn into weeks and the investigation grows cold, twenty-three year old Buffalo police officer Shea O´Connor is called on to dig up leads undercover. Still bearing the emotional and physical scars of a previous case, O´Connor infiltrates as eighteen-year-old Shea Anderson, a college freshman and the niece of the town´s police chief. As she begins to immerse herself in the missing girls´ world, befriending their friends and family, and doing whatever it takes to maintain her cover, O´Connor realizes the track is far colder than she initially thought. But whoever was behind the girls´ disappearance was only warming up, and they have set their crosshairs directly on her. The heat is on for O´Connor as she closes in on the shocking truth about what really happened the night the girls vanished.
