But instead of memories, the fields where Lorna grew up yield something utterly chilling.\r\n\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\r\nAll those years ago, when nine-year-old Melinda Eagan vanished on her birthday, her foulmouthed older brother, Jason, quickly became the lone suspect. Yet when he went missing, too, the case turned cold. But Jason, it seems, never got far: His bones have been moldering on the Temples' land for two decades. As far as the local police are concerned, the book is closed on Melinda's murder - and Jason's death is justice served. But Lorna refuses to let the dead rest uneasily. She turns to private eye T. J. Dawson to dig up the dirt of the past and see what lies beneath. Only there's someone out there who hasn't forgotten - and who won't be the least bit forgiving about being exposed as a killer.\r\n\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\r\nIn matters of crime, there are many versions of the truth.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\r\n\r\nThis is #2 in Truth Series.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Connies Bookshelf","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42955257839832,"sku":"9780345476678","price":3.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0648\/9099\/4904\/products\/HardTruth.jpg?v=1655007411","url":"https:\/\/conniesbookshelf.com\/products\/hard-truth","provider":"Connies Bookshelf","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
