Overview

It was the perfect murder... until the truth refused to stay buried. With no active murder case to solve, blind private investigator Steve Smiley is enjoying a week of peace and quiet. Meanwhile, his partner is preoccupied with her latest real estate project. However, their tranquility is short-lived when a dead body is unearthed at the construction site. Suspicion falls on a young construction worker and brings the project to a standstill. When the boy's lawyer hires them to prove his innocence, Smiley must navigate the complicated dynamics of high school friendships and broken relationships. Tight-knit loyalty and deception among the teenagers challenge Smiley's investigative skills. He'll have to dig deep to uncover the truth and set an innocent young man free while stopping a killer from getting away with murder. Smiley and McBlythe deliver a page-turning mystery that will keep you up way past your bedtime, all with no graphic violence, sex or foul language.
