Proof Positive

A young ex-cop with nothing left to lose but her life, tackles a treacherous cold case.

Set in among northeastern Ohio's farmland, the tiny town of Worthy rarely experiences a murder. So naturally, when a shooter fires into a group of senior dance students, killing a woman and maiming her partner, the county sheriff detains the only stranger who was there. Eying her across his desk, he's not sure whether she's the shooter, as some survivors claim, the vindictive person who hired the hit, or the calmest witness he ever met.

Lauren Beck stopped being a police officer in Landis, Pennsylvania, when she was diagnosed with Hodgkin's disease. She's enormously grateful to be alive and cancer-free, but she's still broke and homeless, the result of being framed by a felon for his many crimes. Worthy, Ohio, just happened to be the latest spot Lauren's missing mother used her cell phone, the dance studio a place she might be found. Infuriated by the shooting, Lauren ran after the killer without thinking—in hindsight, a reckless mistake. Even after a homicide-detective/friend vouches for her, the sheriff warns her not to leave town.

Learning that the dance-studio victim was helping the FBI investigate a sensational bank robbery/multiple-murder case, Lauren's cop instincts kick in. Was that why the woman was killed? Rather than interfere with the sheriff's department, or, god-forbid, the FBI, Lauren quietly pursues the only avenue open to her: retracing the victim's movements …   

…and quickly learns why the case remains unsolved. Even after twenty-nine years, the perpetrator is well equipped to thwart law enforcement. Accomplices, both male and female, young and old, make each new lead Lauren follows more treacherous than the last.

Will she solve the heinous crime that confounded so many for so long?

Or, like her immediate predecessor, will she die trying?

If you like scrappy heroines, white-knuckle suspense, and twisted mysteries, you'll love PROOF POSITIVE.
