She's no longer the terrified teenager a rapt audience saw on television, emerging in handcuffs from the quiet suburban home the night her family was massacred. That girl, Alexandra Quinlan, nicknamed Empty Eyes by the media, was accused of the killings, fought to clear her name, and later took the stand during her highly publicized defamation lawsuit that captured the attention of the nation. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eIt's been ten years since, and Alex hasn't stopped searching for answers about the night her family was killed, even as she continues to hide her real identity from true crime fanatics and grasping reporters still desperate to locate her. As a legal investigator, she works tirelessly to secure justice for others, too. People like Matthew Claymore, who's under suspicion in the disappearance of his girlfriend, a student journalist named Laura McAllister. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eLaura was about to break a major story about rape and cover-ups on her college campus.

For as different as the crimes may seem, they each hinge on one sinister truth: no one is quite who they seem to be . . . \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003e\"Engrossing...not to be missed.\" -\u003ci\u003ePublishers Weekly\u003c\/i\u003e STARRED REVIEW\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/cacorrectionsbookstore.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=AUTH-9659964\"\u003eCharlie Donlea\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Kensington Publishing Corporation\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/23\/2024\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 432\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.91lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.25h x 5.50w x 1.15d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781496744975\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1496744977\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBISAC Categories:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/cacorrectionsbookstore.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=CAT-FIC\"\u003eFiction\u003c\/a\u003e | \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/cacorrectionsbookstore.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=BISAC-FIC030000\"\u003eThrillers | Suspense\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/cacorrectionsbookstore.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=CAT-FIC\"\u003eFiction\u003c\/a\u003e | \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/cacorrectionsbookstore.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=BISAC-FIC022040\"\u003eMystery \u0026amp; Detective | Women Sleuths\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCharlie Donlea\u003c\/b\u003e is the \u003ci\u003eUSA Today, \u003c\/i\u003e IndieBound, and #1 internationally bestselling author of critically acclaimed, propulsive thrillers including\u003ci\u003e The Girl Who Was Taken, Twenty Years Later, Some Choose Darkness, \u003c\/i\u003eand\u003ci\u003e Those Empty Eyes\u003c\/i\u003e.
