Author: BV Lawson

What if a large part of your past turned out to be a lie? Crime consultant Scott Drayco is already in the middle of a possible career-ending legal battle when word comes that his mother, who disappeared 30 years ago, is very much alive ? and charged with murder. With Drayco?s father washing his hands of the matter and police convinced the woman... more » is guilty, everyone tells him he should just walk away from the case and let the chips fall where they may. Except, Drayco finds he can?t leave it alone and is obsessed with uncovering the truth: Is his mother really a killer? Where has she been all these years? And why did she suddenly leave her husband and children to vanish without a trace? Investigating the murder victim?s colleagues, Drayco learns there are plenty who wanted the man dead, including a shadowy stalker who seems to have a mysterious connection to Drayco?s mother. As he wades hip-deep into secrets, lies, and cons, he begins to question if the case is all just part of an elaborate scam ... where the only one being fooled is Drayco himself.

PRAISE FOR BV LAWSON?S SCOTT DRAYCO SERIES: ?BV Lawson has created a memorable character in Drayco, a concert pianist turned FBI agent, turned crime consultant. He also has the fascinating condition of synesthesia, which not only adds a mysterious depth to his character it is integral to the plot.? Big Als Books & Pals ?The storyline here is nicely structured, and creatively ties together two murder mysteries, which occurred decades apart. The small town setting is ideal, the lead character engaging, and the supporting cast interesting and diverse. Overall, a solid start to this series.? Omimystery News ?... Kept me guessing until the very end. I?d recommend this book to experienced mystery readers who enjoy wrestling with skillfully placed hints that don?t easily reveal their secrets.? Long and Short Reviews ?Lawson?s book was so good, I read it twice from beginning to end...The citizens of Cape Unity are as diverse and multi-layered as any person living in the large cities, and Lawson portrayed them splendidly.? - Reader's Favorite Reviews ?Now this story was close to brilliance ... The writing was fluent and the story intriguing, and I loved the end.? ? IHeartReading Reviews ?A nice tight mystery in a realistic setting. Totally enjoyable.? Terrie Farley Moran, author of the Read ?Em and Eat Mysteries
