active shooter scene. Andrea Oliver and her mother, Laura, are in a
restaurant when the killer starts shooting. Bullets are flying but Laura is not
diving for cover. She is approaching the shooter, challenging him,
taunting him--and when he suddenly pulls a knife she turns the tables on him
and he is dead.
What follows is unexpected. The police are questioning
why the shooter is dead. They are looking at Laura not as a victim but
as a criminal. A stranger shows up threatening Laura and someone else
dies! Andrea is abruptly on the run following her mother's instructions,
slowly uncovering what is really going on, trying to save herself and
solve the puzzle that appears to be her mother's former life.
This is a truly involved mystery. It is written in the back and forth style that is not my favorite but is necessary to explain what happened originally and how it is causing the current events. Pick this one up when you have time to devote to reading. You'll be drawn in immediately.
