About this listen
In this fast-paced novel of suspense, the murder of a young woman occurs in the LGBT community. Suspicion falls on her closest friend and the last one to see her alive. Her friend misleads the police and her significant other. She has her reasons.
On top of running low on suspects, the two detectives miss some crucial clues because of personal distractions.
The characters are real; they laugh, joke, and make mistakes. This suspense novel is not another detective pining for his ex, with the only thing keeping him or her going being finding that bad guy.

With each step, each new finding, she uncovers unsettling facts leading to a single possible conclusion: Dawn Girl is not the only victim. Her killer has killed before.

It's been said that all great literature boils down to one of two stories—a man takes a journey, or a stranger comes to town. While mystery writers have been successfully using both approaches for generations, there's something undeniably alluring in the nature of a stranger: the uninvited guest, the unacquainted neighbor, the fish out of water. In the newest collection of stories by the Mystery Writers of America, each author weaves a fresh tale surrounding the eerie feeling that comes when a stranger enters our midst, featuring stories by prolific mystery writers.
