Grave Secret (The Sidney Becker Mysteries Book 6)

Description

Deep in the backwoods, dark secrets lie hidden . . .

When a decomposing body is found in the woods, it’s identified as an elderly woman who was buried in the cemetery weeks earlier. Who stole her body? Why? What is buried in her coffin? The discovery inside the coffin leads Police Chief Becker to interview an array of suspects, including a clown, a mortician, and a male stripper. Five orphan boys who live in a church have information about the dead woman, but they’re too scared to talk.

Complicating her investigation, a young homeless woman is found murdered. The homicide investigation takes Becker into the backwoods, where she discovers vicious criminals are operating off the grid. Their crimes are spilling into Becker’s community, threatening the people she’s vowed to protect.

To make matters worse, one of the orphan boys heads into the backwoods to avenge the young woman’s death. Becker needs to get these criminals into custody fast, before the young man becomes a killer, or ends up being a victim.
