Bad Roads

The mayor’s murder is solved in less than twenty-four hours. Eva Lah and Mark Novak know that’s the problem.

When a small-town mayor is found murdered, the local authorities waste no time closing the case. They call it a domestic argument gone wrong—an open-and-shut crime with an obvious suspect.

But true-crime writer Eva Lah isn’t convinced.

She believes the mayor’s death is connected to the brutal murder of a young woman eight years earlier. A murder that was never solved—and that the town has never forgotten.

Former US Military Special Investigator Mark Novak agrees that the evidence doesn’t fit the official story. Together, he and Eva begin digging into the cold case, uncovering old secrets, buried lies, and evidence pointing to a killer who has already escaped justice once.

Someone got away with murder eight years ago.

Now Eva and Mark are close to exposing the truth.

Unless the killer buries them first.

Bad Roads is Book 3 in E&M Investigations, a dark European crime series where true-crime writer Eva pursues the stories others overlook and former military investigator Mark follows the evidence—no matter where it leads.
