What People Leave Behind
()
About this ebook
Detective Andrea Donovan follows her hunches. But hunches without evidence don't hold up in court. And she refuses to stop digging to prove her latest hunch. A hunch that leads her to disturbing conclusions about a disturbing crime—one that will change the survivors, and Andrea, forever.
The riveting "What People Leave Behind," chosen as one of the year's best stories, explores the lengths people go to succeed—or fail.
"With this story, [Ms. Rusch] nicely justifies her high reputation with an intriguing set of characters executed with captivating prose that kept me riveted to my seat until finishing the piece."
—Midwest Book Review
"Kristine Kathryn Rusch pulls a switcheroo for the ages with 'What People Leave Behind,' setting up an intensely sympathetic protagonist and then explosively yanking the rug out from under her—and the reader."
