What happens when you open the door to the past?

In book six of the McKenna Mystery series, Grace locks eyes with Toby Melville, Bridgeton business owner and handyman.

It only takes a second to set Grace on the path to justice once again, when visions spin from Toby’s eyes.
A stream of blood cascading down a bronzed man’s chin, creating a river that descends his neck and chest, before his body slips beneath a crush of white, foamy water. And then, a horizon of emerald green trees on a blue sky backdrop so beautiful it looks like a painting.

With baby Ellie now in the picture, the stakes are higher than ever before, as Grace struggles with the push and pull of being a working mother and a detective with a gift. As she adjusts to parenting life, questions her relationship with Mark, and finds out that her job might be in jeopardy, Grace sets out on a road trip that brings her back to the past, on a hunt to track down the source of Toby’s secrets.

Following a handful of tips provided by the locals in a small lakeside town, Grace is forced to do some digging, awakening secrets that have been sleeping for decades. As she keeps a pulse on the Bridgeton Police Department happenings, she learns that her job could be threatened by hidden agendas within the police station, and she will end up needing to make a choice between her gift and her career.

What she discovers about herself as she solves this next crime, ends up shaping the person she becomes.

The twistiest installment in the McKenna Mystery series yet.
