Summary: When a prominent Texas family’s celebration ends in murder, local law enforcement discovers they are keeping dark secrets in this tense new suspense novel from USA Today bestselling author Laura Griffin.
Cal Truitt is dead, no one knows who killed him, and everyone is a suspect.
Perhaps it’s his bride-to-be, ranching heiress Faye McCann, who’s facing a midlife crisis after falling into deep debt and being forced to convert her property into a posh retreat. Or maybe it’s one of her three children—who all despised Cal and were summoned to the ranch by Faye to learn some long-buried family secrets.
Lilian Lasko is new blood, but she has some secrets of her own. She sees her boyfriend’s family, with their bitter rivalries and resentments, through the eyes of a wary outsider. Lilian is eager to please, but by the night’s end, she’s running through a creek bed, covered in blood.
Only one person knows the truth: the killer.
Detective Kate Graham is determined to unravel the family’s toxic manipulations and lies to reveal Cal Truitt’s murderer. But with a family that hates and loves one another with equal fervor, Kate’s pursuit of justice becomes more complicated and dangerous with each passing hour.
Reviews:
“This is an intense thriller that starts off fast and never lets up. Author Laura Griffin has done it again!”—Red Carpet Crash
Praise for Innocence Road
“High-tension suspense that feels urgently of the moment. This saga crackles with border politics, racism, sexism and corruption.”—People
“Innocence Road puts generational trauma and buried secrets front and center with a twisty plot and big surprises. A story that asks if justice is really for all that will stay with readers long after the final page.”—Vanessa Lillie, bestselling author of Blood Sisters
“On some roads, innocence isn’t easy to come by. When no one seems to care about the nameless, apparently friendless women who have been murdered and left by the side of the desolate desert road, Detective Leanne Everhart steps in to uncover the truth – and unearths more than she bargained for. Full of tragic secrets, family drama, and harrowing twists, Laura Griffin’s suspenseful, insightful novels never disappoint.”—New York Times bestselling author Juliet Blackwell
“Gripping…Griffin’s evocative sense of place captures the minutiae of small-town life…Innocence Road maps a strong plot buoyed by powerful characters like Leanne, whose tenacious personality enhances her skills as an investigator.”—Shelf Awareness
“…this atmospheric page-turner starring a complex detective is engrossing enough to deserve a sequel.”—Publishers Weekly
“This is an edge-of-the-seat read that’s not for the faint of heart.”—First Clue
“An engaging heroine and a nicely complex mystery. This stand-alone will appeal to readers of Linda Castillo and Allison Brennan.”—Library Journal
“…An intense, page-turning story.”—Red Carpet Crash
“A fast-paced, unputdownable mystery that grabs the reader from the first pages. Leanne is a fully developed character—strong, dedicated, angry, filled with self-doubt—and you can’t help but hope Griffin will start another series centered around Leanne.”—The Denver Post
