led to his identity. But before they could question her
ANGELA DISAPPEARED.

is about to be paroled for Angela's murder
—THE ONLY CRIME THE DA COULD PIN ON HIM.
BUT THE CRYPTIC FILE RORY FINDS

MAKING ONE STARTLING DISCOVERY
after another, RORY becomes helplessly

ANGELA MITCHELL
and what happened to her.

PAST AND PRESENT
RORY uncovers truths about the
reclusive victim, her father
and the man called THE THIEF

where things may
NOT BE AS THEY APPEAR.

TERRIFYING TRUTH
THAT IS EMERGING . . .
