Carolina Moon
Tory Bodeen grew up in a small, rundown house where her father ruled with an iron fist and a leather belt – and where her dreams and talents had no room to flourish. But she had Hope -- who lived in the big house, just a short skip away, and whose friendship allowed Tory to be something she wasn’t allowed to be at home: a child.
After young Hope’s brutal murder, unsolved to this day, Tory’s life began to fall apart. And now, as she returns to her home town to settle down, she is determined to find peace of mind. As she forges a new bond with Cade Lavelle – Hope’s older brother – she isn’t sure if the tragic loss they share will unite them or
drive them apart.
But living so close to those unhappy memories will be more difficult and frightening than she ever expected. Because the killer of Hope is living nearby as well.
